Executive AI Australia
Learn AI in One Day.
In Person. In Brisbane.
Dear Brisbane Professional,
You've seen the headlines. AI is everywhere. Every newsletter, every LinkedIn post, every conference panel, every coffee chat. Your competitors are using it. Your colleagues are talking about it. Your inbox is being slowly buried under “AI strategy” pitches from consultants who couldn't explain a prompt if their life depended on it.
And yet — when you sit down to actually use AI in your own work, it feels… underwhelming. You type something into ChatGPT, get a generic response, and think: “Wait. Is this really it?”
You watch a YouTube video promising to change your life. Three days later you've forgotten everything in it. You sign up for an online course, get to lesson 3, and never go back. You bookmark forty-seven articles you'll “definitely read this weekend.” You don't read them this weekend.
That's not your fault.
Here's the truth nobody in this space wants to say out loud:
- Almost no one actually knows how to use AI well — including most of the people loudly claiming to teach it
- The genuinely good resources are scattered across Twitter threads, niche YouTube channels, Discord servers, and developer documentation written for engineers
- The bad resources (which is to say: 95% of them) are recycled blog posts written by people who've never built anything real with these tools in their lives
- Online courses are designed to be bought, not finished — that's why the average completion rate is 14%
- The AI landscape changes so fast that anything taught more than three months ago is already half-wrong
- The actual skill — the one that separates the people getting real leverage from the people producing AI slop — is almost impossible to learn from a screen
The only reliable way to learn skilled work fast is the same way humans have learned it for thousands of years: in person, in a small group, watching someone who actually does it for a living do it in front of you. And then doing it yourself, with that person at your shoulder, until it clicks.
Not from a video. Not from a course. Not from a Twitter thread.
In a room. With a working practitioner. For one focused day.
That's what this workshop is.
This Workshop Is Not for Everyone
Let me save you some time. This is not for you if:
- You're already an AI power user who prompts daily — you won't learn much you don't already know
- You want a cheap online course you can half-watch at 2x speed while doing the dishes
- You think AI is a fad and you're just "checking it out" to humour a colleague
- You're not willing to invest a full Saturday and $800 AUD in your own future
- You're hoping for a magic shortcut that doesn't require actually doing the work in the room
This is for you if:
- You're a business owner, manager, or professional who knows AI matters but hasn't figured out how to actually use it yet
- You learn best by doing — not by watching
- You want to walk out of a room with practical skills you can use Monday morning
- You value your time enough to pay for a shortcut that actually works
- You'd rather spend one focused Saturday than six distracted months trying to figure this out alone
A Taste of What You'll Walk Away With
- The 5-minute mental model that finally makes AI "click" — and why almost every popular explanation gets this completely backwards
- A clear, no-jargon map of the AI landscape as it actually stands in 2026 — what's real, what's hype, what's coming, and what to safely ignore
- The four flavours of AI tool every professional should know about — and the simple rule for choosing the right one for the job (most people get this wrong every single time)
- How to keep up with a field that moves at this speed — without falling down the rabbit hole every weekend or drowning in newsletters
- The exact prompting framework that turns ChatGPT and Claude from "interesting toys" into serious thinking partners — this alone is worth the price of admission
- A side-by-side comparison of ChatGPT and Claude — what each is genuinely better at, and why most people only ever use one and miss out on half the magic
- A live walkthrough of Claude Cowork — one of the most under-the-radar power features in the entire AI toolkit, and exactly how to put it to work on Monday morning
- Image generation for non-designers — how to create on-brand visuals for your business, slides, and marketing in seconds (plus the one prompt trick that separates the pros from the amateurs)
- A live demo of OpenClaw — a personal AI assistant that runs on your own computer and actually does things for you (handles emails, manages your calendar, runs errands across your apps) instead of just talking about doing them
- A guided hands-on build session where you'll create something useful for your actual job before you leave the room — with the instructor at your shoulder the whole time
- The critical mistakes that make AI give you garbage answers — and the 10-second fixes that turn them around
- How to evaluate new AI tools and trends so you stop wasting money on shiny apps that don't deliver — and start spotting the ones that do
Workshop Details
Held in the Brisbane CBD. The exact venue address will be shared with attendees closer to the event date.
What to Expect on the Day
One focused Saturday. Two halves. The morning is about understanding. The afternoon is about doing.
The exact running order will flex based on the questions in the room. The point isn't to march through a curriculum — it's to get you fluent.
About Your Instructor
Senior Software Engineer & AI Practitioner
Your instructor is a Brisbane-based senior software engineer who has been coding professionally since 2019. He uses AI tools every single day — in his day job in the city, and in his personal life — to write code, draft documents, research ideas, automate workflows, and think more clearly. He's not an academic studying AI from the outside. He's a practitioner who has lived through the GPT-3, GPT-4, Claude, and agent-era shifts in real time, and built real things with each of them.
He stays on top of the latest models, tools, and trends — and understands the fundamentals well enough to separate hype from substance. What AI can actually do today. What's coming next. Where to look for signal in a sea of noise. And, most importantly, how to translate all of it into practical leverage for the work you already do.
No academic theory. No "thought leadership" fluff. Just what works, distilled into one focused day.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I'm not technical?
Perfect — this workshop is designed for professionals, not programmers. If you can use a web browser and type, you're qualified. We focus on practical AI skills, not coding.
What's the refund policy?
Full refunds, no questions asked. If the workshop doesn't reach 4 bookings, you get a full refund automatically. If you need to cancel for any reason — anytime before the day — just email us and you get a full refund. Simple.
What do I need to bring?
Just your laptop and charger. Setup instructions — including which free accounts to create beforehand (ChatGPT, Claude, and a couple of others) — will be sent ahead of the event so we can hit the ground running on the day.
What if it sells out?
Join the waitlist. We're planning additional dates based on demand. Waitlist members get first access to new workshops before they're announced publicly.
Can my company pay for this?
Absolutely. Many attendees expense this as professional development. You'll receive a proper tax invoice from Stripe upon payment. ABN provided on request.
How is this different from online courses?
You'll be in a room with up to 9 other professionals and an instructor who uses AI daily in his actual work. You can ask questions in real time, get unstuck immediately, and build alongside peers. No pre-recorded videos. No self-paced procrastination. No half-finished modules sitting in your account a year from now. One day, one room, real skills.
Where exactly is it?
Brisbane CBD. The exact venue and address will be shared with confirmed attendees closer to the event date.
What happens after the workshop?
Two things. First, you get lifetime email access to the instructor — if you have a question about anything from the workshop, or anything AI-related you run into in your work afterwards, just email and you'll get a real answer. Second, you'll be automatically added to the private alumni newsletter, which is only sent to past attendees and is never opened to the public. It covers new tools, model updates, and practical tips as the AI landscape keeps moving. The workshop is one day. The relationship is ongoing.
Why Now?
Six months ago, half the tools we'll cover in the afternoon didn't exist.
Six months from now, half the tools we cover today will already be replaced by something better.
That's not a reason to wait. That's the reason to start.
The professionals who get fluent in AI right now are getting compounding leverage every single week. They're shipping more. Thinking faster. Learning faster. Outpacing colleagues who keep promising themselves they'll “get into AI properly soon.”
The people who keep waiting for things to settle down are watching the gap widen and pretending not to notice.
Things are not going to settle down.
P.S. — A year from now, every professional in Brisbane will fall into one of two camps: the ones who figured AI out, and the ones who got left behind by the ones who did. This workshop is the cheapest, fastest, most direct way to put yourself in the first group. Saturday, May 16th, 2026. 10 seats. Then they're gone.
P.P.S. — Full refund, no questions asked, anytime before the workshop. The only way you lose is by not booking.
