How to Build AI Literacy at Your Firm Without the Hype

Описание: You can opt out of using AI. You cannot opt out of understanding it.

That's the central argument from this episode of AI Calibration Weekly — and it has direct implications for every firm, regardless of where you are in AI adoption.

What you'll learn:

Why AI literacy is a professional obligation, not just a technology trend
How to lead AI adoption conversations without overwhelming your team
Why starting with tools instead of process is the most common (and costly) mistake
How to address the fears your team actually has — not the ones you assume they have
What responsible AI governance looks like inside a law firm

Zack, Debbie, and Danielle break down key takeaways from the Women and AI Summit 2.0 at Vanderbilt Law — a cross-industry conference focused on AI literacy, governance, and responsible adoption in high-stakes professions.
