After 12 years of building and growing his media company, Arturo Ferreira had a front row seat to what generative AI could do. A technological hobbyist throughout his life, Arturo watched the conversation around generative AI morph from humorous novelty to societal shift.

Using his platform and drawing on his life experience, Arturo's focus is teaching AI from the perspective of the average professional, making complex topics simple and ensuring everyone understands just how accessible, and important, this new technology is.
