WiT Conversations with Focus Tiger: Brain Health in the Age of AI
AI is reshaping how we work, learn, and make decisions, but it can either strengthen or weaken our brains, depending on how we use it.
In this webinar, we will explore the cognitive impact of AI, from focus and memory to creativity and critical thinking. You’ll learn how to use AI as a sparring partner, reduce distractions, and reclaim time for meaningful work, while keeping your mind sharp, engaged, and resilient in the AI era.
