Feb 2026: AI Enablement for the Non-Technical

Open-source workshop materials for a two-day AI enablement session designed for non-technical teams. Six standalone interactive decks covering everything from tool basics to building reusable skills — fork it, adapt it, run your own:

• → 1a: Level Setting — What Is All This Stuff?
  • AI tool tiers: browser chat, desktop apps, integrated tools, and agentic systems
  • Security implications of consumer vs. enterprise AI accounts
  • Moving beyond the AI adoption plateau in your workplace
• → 1b: Critical Thinking & Our 5-Year Prediction
  • Augmentation vs. automation: knowing which mode you're in
  • Building a QA instinct — read aloud, verify claims, ask "would I own this?"
  • The 5-year divide: critical thinkers who use AI well vs. those who delegate blindly
• → 1c: Plan Mode & Milestones
  • Avoiding "dark flow" — the illusion of productivity without direction
  • Writing clear requirements and done-criteria before building
  • Using milestones to prevent drift and verify AI output
• → 1d: Security & Data Safety
  • What AI actually sees: files, web pages, and full conversation history
  • The lethal trifecta: private data + untrusted content + outbound communication
  • Prompt injection attacks and how to defend against them
• → 1e: Context Engineering
  • How context windows work: ~150K words of working memory, depleted per token
  • Stateless APIs mean every request resends the full conversation
  • When to start fresh vs. carry context forward
• → 1f: Skills — Make the Machine Remember How You Think
  • Reusable instructions in plain English — no code required
  • Do it manually 2–3 times before automating into a skill
  • Setting the dial between prescriptive and flexible approaches
• → 2a: AI-Assisted Data Exploration & Analysis
  • Live demo: how asking better questions changes the analysis — not just speed, but accuracy
  • Six ways AI silently corrupts your data (duplicate rows, summing percentages, wrong time windows)
  • The Three Questions sticky note: real or noise, what else could explain this, would I change my decision?
