Why you might think twice about Mindhive’s AI training (and why you’d want to attend anyway)

Have you ever received an invitation to an event and immediately started looking for reasons to opt out? If you’re considering Mindhive’s AI training, here are five reasons why you might think twice:

You’re already an AI expert. You know everything about the latest developments in artificial intelligence and AI virtual assistants. There is simply nothing new that Ville or anyone else in the room could teach you.
You’re already using an AI assistant. As Suvi calls hers, a “little friend”, that helps you solve business challenges daily, and you don’t need additional insights or feedback.
You’re comfortable starting with AI tools on your own. You prefer self-learning and feel no need for guided instruction.
You are convinced that an AI assistant cannot save you time or money. You believe it won’t help you make more money, so you see the training as an unnecessary expense.
You already have a ‘superpower’. 💪

However, if you don’t fully align with any of the reasons above, please consider the following:

Interactivity and personal guidance

This training is not a lecture with one-way information consumption. Most people in the room will be local, with similar questions about AI and similar business challenges where AI tools can help. We can all learn from each other and lift each other up.

Ville Venäläinen will lead the Mindhive training. With over 20 years of experience in leveraging AI and advancing digitalization in businesses, Ville has helped numerous companies improve their operations—ranging from AI solutions and information systems to leadership and business development.

There will be a plenary session where Ville will bring us up to speed on what AI actually is, why it’s a big deal, the latest trends and capabilities of AI, and how free and inexpensive AI tools such as ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, or Gemini can significantly enhance your creativity, productivity, efficiency and profitability.

But there will also be ample opportunity for discussion and plenty of time for every participant to receive individual guidance on the challenges where AI can help in their specific situation.

Here’s what some participants have said about Ville’s training:

“Ville is an expert in this field and knows how to apply AI to practical work tasks excellently.”

“A very good and professional training with a relaxed approach!”

If you want to come prepared…

If you do decide to come to the training, you are encouraged to bring your laptop so we can help you hit the ground running. If you like, you can also install ChatGPT on your mobile phone in advance and log in, but we’re happy to help you set it up.

Part of the trick to getting the most out of an AI buddy is the art of asking smart questions and giving clever instructions.

For your inspiration, and for you to copy and adapt, Mindhive has prepared a wealth of advice for good prompts at https://www.mindhive.fi/en/chatgpt-guide#tips.

You can review them, experiment with them, and adjust them to suit your business any time. Even if any of those five reasons above to not join us apply to you, Mindhive is happy to make this material available to you.

Superpower

I asked Ville what he considers to be the key benefit of having a non-imaginary little friend.

“It gives you a superpower,” he said. “You’ll have the ability to do many things that you’ve never actually learned. Suddenly, you have a whole team of experts at your disposal. Your assistant can switch between many professional roles. This means you can achieve much more than you could on your own.”

“No more blank pages. No more writer’s block,” Ville continued. “From now on, it will be easier than ever to start any new task. Tell your AI buddy what you’re trying to achieve, and it will help you get things done.”

“Take this example: The fridge in my shop is broken. Does my insurance cover the damage? I have an electronic copy of my insurance policy. Instead of reading all the fine print myself, I submit the file to my AI buddy, and it analyses exactly what compensation I can expect from my insurance company.”

My AI learning journey

You might wonder what’s in it for me. Well, Ville and I go quite a way back, and I’ve been helping Mindhive lately with the launch of their AI training and their Mainio product.

I’ve learned a great deal from Ville’s training and by experimenting with ChatGPT myself. I recently started blogging about that learning journey. Here are a few of my previous posts on the topic:
