Leverage Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to feed private data into AI models, effectively giving an LLM access to your specific business history or personal files.

3

Prepare for the shift from AI as a tool to AI as a teammate by developing skills in recruiting, onboarding, and managing digital agents.
