Pitääkö osallistujilla olla teknistä osaamista?

Ei. Palvelut on suunnattu johdolle, liiketoiminnalle, tuoteorganisaatioille, HR:lle ja asiantuntijoille. Tekninen osaaminen ei ole edellytys.

Onko kyse ChatGPT-koulutuksesta?

Ei pelkästään. Käsittelemme AI:ta strategian, liiketoiminnan, asiakasarvon, tuotejohtamisen, työn muutoksen ja käytännön hyödyntämisen näkökulmasta. Työkalut ovat vain osa kokonaisuutta.

Voiko workshop olla organisaatiollemme räätälöity?

Kyllä. Räätälöimme sisällöt toimialan, osallistujien, tavoitteiden ja AI-valmiuden mukaan.

Toteutatteko teknisiä AI-ratkaisuja?

Starmap AI:n painopiste on johdon, liiketoiminnan, tuoteajattelun ja AI-hankkeiden sparrauksessa. Voimme auttaa määrittelyssä, pilotoinnissa ja toimittajavalinnoissa. Varsinainen tekninen toteutus voidaan tehdä asiakkaan oman tiimin tai kumppanien kanssa.

Mitä AI-burnout tarkoittaa?

AI-burnout kuvaa AI-aikakauden työn kuormitusriskiä, jossa ihmisen työ muuttuu jatkuvaksi AI:n ohjaamiseksi, valvomiseksi, tarkistamiseksi ja päätöksenteoksi. Jos tätä ei johdeta hyvin, työ voi muuttua kognitiivisesti raskaaksi.

Mistä kannattaa aloittaa?

Usein hyvä aloitus on johdon AI-inspiraatiotyöpaja tai AI-mahdollisuuksien kartoitus. Jos organisaatiossa AI on jo aktiivisessa käytössä, voi olla hyödyllistä aloittaa AI-työn ja kuormituksen kartoituksesta.
