While you wouldn't exactly call yourself a computer wizard, you recognize AI has become too important to ignore.The thing is, you're not looking to start a side hustle, automate your workflows, or "vibe code".

You might even pick up some new hobbies - or finally jump into that project you've been thinking about since 1997.
You'll be guided by Rachel Garb, who spent over 30 years in Silicon Valley making complex products easier to understand and use, including nearly two decades at Google. She explains things succinctly but also with heart and humor to make the topic relatable rather than intimidating.
