Duration: 2 hours

Everyone is chasing productivity hacks with ChatGPT, but not you. You’re curious – curious to explore what interacting with ChatGPT can teach you about the complexities and nuances of human existence. What if custom instructions could act like incantations, breathing life into your dialogues with ChatGPT, similar to the way rabbis breathed life into the golem?

In this 2-hour workshop, we’ll guide you on a journey beyond mere productivity. Discover how personalising your interactions with ChatGPT can open doors to self-discovery, deepen your perception on the uniqueness of being human, and enhance ethical awareness.

Duration: 2 hours

You want to back what you believe in with action, but the gap between your good intentions and your practice often feels insurmountable. Join us for an ETHOS Gardening session in which you’ll discover your personal ETHOS Garden and learn how to nurture your values or principles with a variety of elemental pledges.

In this 2-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to close your intent to action gap in an embodied way that will feed your moral imagination. And we’ll enlist the help of ChatGPT as a garden golem to inspire you to write more diverse pledges that will turn the seeds of good intentions into thriving flora in your personal ETHOS Garden.

Duration: 90 minutes
workshop-exploring-the-gen-ai-fire-elements-thumb

Discover the transformative yet contentious realm of generative AI (Gen AI) in this 90 minute immersive workshop. Like Prometheus stealing fire from the gods, Gen AI offers us a tool of incomprehensible power and potential. But how should we handle this fire? Should we let it burn wildly, use it sparingly, or douse it entirely?

Guided by the metaphorical story of fire, we take you on a philosophical and practical journey to explore how to respond to and steward this potent technology responsibly. We navigate the spectrum of innovation and caution, teaching you to be a responsible firekeeper of the Gen AI flame.
