This Road to Macstock Conference and Expo session features another speaker who is not only presenting on the conference stage, but is also delivering one of the Friday workshops. Marty Jencius of the Vision ProFiles podcast discusses his workshop on AI, focusing on practical applications for enhancing work productivity. He emphasizes hands-on learning and aims to provide attendees with three “wow” moments using AI tools. His conference session, in contrast, will focus on helping others find their own answers and solve their own problems through accessing the many resources the web offers. Marty invites individuals of all skill levels to join the passionate tech community at Macstock for learning, networking, and exploring new technologies.
