Will 2024 usher in a new era of learning through AI and simulations?

\n

This week I'm talking with with Mike Vaughan, CEO of The Regis Group, to delve into how AI-driven simulations are reimagining the possibilities for skill development. We explore the transition from traditional knowledge architecture to immersive, AI-enhanced simulations, offering a hands-on approach to skill development.

In our conversation, we talk candidly about the evolution of simulations, highlighting the historical challenges while unpacking how tech has increased accessibility and cost-effectiveness, making them a viable option for a broad range of organizations. We also get into the nitty gritty AI's expanding role in personalizing learning experiences and preparing individuals for real-world scenarios.

\n

But we got beyond just about the technology. We discuss the challenges professionals face in adapting to this new landscape, emphasizing the need for a mindset shift away from content and toward experience. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of education and work, where AI is not just an aid but a central player in the human development.
