As the Chief AI Officer of a Fortune 500 energy company, Andy Quick has one foot in the future and the other firmly grounded in practical reality. In this candid, eye-opening session, Andy joins the Beacon Institute MBA for the EA to deconstruct the world of artificial intelligence and what it really means for Administrative Professionals.

Andy will unpack how AI models like ChatGPT are actually built, what most people get wrong about how they work, and why he believes exceptional Admins are irreplaceable, even in an AI-powered future. He’ll also explore overlooked risks companies face when rolling out AI, how to build AI literacy without the overwhelm, and whether tools like ChatGPT are making us smarter or a little too dependent.

Whether you’re just starting to explore AI or looking to sharpen your strategy, this session will help you think more critically and confidently about your role in the age of artificial intelligence.

Come curious. Leave empowered.
