“I called my boss at 10:30 and told him I’d already gotten my money’s worth. The rest of the day was a free bonus as far as I’m concerned. Next year I’m bringing my whole team.”
“Listening to the out-of-town speakers at the Prepare.AI conference opened my eyes to how products of the future are being designed - incorporating skills and disciplines from science, engineering and technology to social behavioral science, systems design, aesthetics and bioethics - all to improve the human condition.”
