FLX AI Hub Webinar: AI as Thought Partner: Beyond the Vending Machine
Tuesday, October 13, 2026
This free lunchtime webinar offers practical tips and a Q and A.
"AI as Thought Partner: Beyond the Vending Machine" begins at noon on Tuesday, Oct. 13. Instructor Quinn Karley gives a presentation followed by a question-and-answer session.
AI is everywhere, but asking it for quick answers is not the same as using it as a true thought partner. In this interactive 60-minute webinar, participants will learn how to move beyond one-shot prompting and use AI to clarify ideas, ask better questions, anticipate obstacles, explore options, and use AI to expand your thinking.
Participants will be introduced to practical ways to use AI as a mirror, coach, and strategist, along with simple rules of engagement and real-life examples. The session will also touch on using different tools such as NotebookLM, Scribe, Gems, and custom GPTs.
This webinar is for beginners, occasional users, and regular AI users who want to move beyond basic prompting and get more strategic value from AI. No technical background is required.
Webinars are held on the second Tuesday of the month. The remaining schedule for the year:
Nov. 10: AI Video Creation: Turn Ideas into Video, No Editing Skills Required
Dec. 8: AI-Powered Infographics: Turn Data and Ideas into Visuals in Minutes
