Today, we hosted our second session of Future Skills Fest: AI at Work — Driving Productivity or Diluting Critical Thinking? led by the incredible Dale Leszczynski.

In our very first debate, both teams explored whether AI is helping us work smarter or weakening our critical thinking skills through overreliance.

The win went to Lani Cush and Alex Wood, who argued the latter (though only just) with Mark Byrne and Courtney Blackman presenting a strong case for the opposing side.

Thanks to everyone who joined us in person and online for such an engaging discussion. We’re excited for more great sessions across the rest of the week.
