Tech A Look: What Local Businesses are Actually Doing With AI
About this Event
From EPB's self-healing power grid to Volkswagen's factory floor down to main-street shops and one-truck contractors, guest speaker Troy Bearden, shares real examples of how businesses are using AI to work faster, stay organized, and build custom tools they couldn't afford before. He also covers what to do when your data is too sensitive for the cloud, and what AI still gets wrong. You'll leave with a free, safe way to try AI on your own business the very next morning. No technical background needed. Bring your questions and a real problem from your own work.
