COTTESMORE'S FREE A.I. FESTIVAL

MONDAY 4TH, TUESDAY 5TH & WEDNESDAY 6TH SEPTEMBER 2023

 

‘Cottesmore’s Free A.I. Festival 2023’ has been set up to help leaders, teachers, bursars, proprietors, subject leads, governors, business people and operations leaders negotiate the world of generative A.I. through a series of highly practical workshops, punctuated by talks from thought-leading speakers. 

This dynamic event is free because we believe that everyone has the right to understand and access the power of generative A.I. and we wanted to make access as broad as possible, with as few barriers to involvement as possible.
