Artificial intelligence is already changing how work gets done, what skills matter, and how people begin their careers. Many of these changes are happening while today’s students are still in high school, creating both uncertainty and new opportunities.
In this session, participants will learn how AI is being used in the workplace, what skills will remain valuable, and how to prepare. We'll also discuss AI as a tool for exploring career choices.
