Join Tech Women and Deloitte this Ada Lovelace Day for an interactive workshop designed to help women build confidence using generative AI.

Ada Lovelace Day celebrates the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, while inspiring the next generation of innovators. This year, we’ll move beyond the hype to explore how AI can become a practical, useful tool in your day-to-day work.

This is not a technical session, and no previous AI experience is required. Through guided activities and peer learning, you’ll build your understanding, try practical techniques and leave with greater confidence to experiment.

What you’ll explore

What AI is — and isn’t
How generative AI tools work
Practical ways AI can support your work
How to write better prompts
Using AI safely and responsibly
Building confidence through hands-on experimentation
