Mastering AI can make life easier in countless ways. From planning weekly meals with specific dietary requirements, to organising family schedules, researching holidays, or coming up with fresh work and hobby ideas, the possibilities are endless.

Peregian Digital Hub is helping locals learn these practical skills with two new Get the Most Out of ChatGPT workshops on 30 March and 10 April.

The Hub is trialling the free workshops to understand the community's current AI literacy and appetite for more training. Feedback from participants will help shape future sessions.

Peregian Digital Hub's Program Officer, Digital Ecosystem and Talent Development, Deidre Marczynski, said the Hub is eager to hear what locals want from AI.

"We'll be asking participants what other AI tools they'd like to use and which they think would most benefit them, and this information will form the basis of the topics we cover in follow up workshops," she said.

Young entrepreneur Darcy Smith (pictured, right) will lead the sessions, sharing the simple tips and practical tricks she uses every day for planning schedules, developing business ideas and guiding fitness routines, and nutrition.

"AI can help you learn a new language, plan meals and shopping lists around allergies or preferences, research your dream trip, plan fun activities with kids or grandkids, or spark new ideas - all from your smartphone, tablet or laptop," Ms Smith said.

The workshops are ideal for people who aren't technically minded and new to ChatGPT.

Each free workshop is capped at 30 participants. Attendees should bring a device with ChatGPT already installed, or arrive 30 minutes early to receive help to download the app.
