02Experiential Workshop

Working with AI
without unlearning.

A workshop built around real professional situations to experiment with useful uses of artificial intelligence while preserving attention, critical thinking, creativity and decision quality.

Participants learn to better distinguish what they can delegate to AI, what they need to verify, and what they must continue to do themselves.

The problem

AI saves us time. But which skills do we stop exercising?

Artificial intelligence is already used to search, synthesize, write, analyze, prepare for a meeting, or generate new ideas.

But when we systematically entrust it with the first thought, the first formulation, or the first recommendation, a question arises: what capabilities do we continue to truly develop?

Between rejection of AI, fascination and gradual dependence, teams are still seeking the right way to work with it.

What you have probably already tried

sharing a list of prompts or best practices;
organising a demonstration of the main tools;
letting each person experiment on their own;
drafting a usage charter with little connection to real situations;
banning certain tools without addressing practices already in place;
encouraging the use of AI without defining what must remain under human responsibility.

These approaches mainly discuss tools. They rarely address the distribution of work between human intelligence and artificial intelligence.

Yet the essential question is not simply: ‘How should we use AI?’

It is also: “When should we think on our own, when should we think with AI, and when should we choose not to use it?”

WHO IT IS FOR · WHAT IT IS FOR

This workshop is designed for you if…

your teams already use AI, but without genuinely shared practices;
the levels of mastery and confidence are highly heterogeneous;
you want to move beyond training focused solely on prompts;
you want to strengthen critical thinking and answer verification;
you are concerned about the risks of standardisation or dependency;
you want to clarify what can be delegated and what must remain under human oversight;
you want to build rules suited to the realities of your work;
you are looking for a participative, concrete and directly applicable format.

This format is not suitable if…

you are looking for in-depth technical training on a specific software tool;
you only want to learn how to write better prompts;
you expect IT integration or a cybersecurity audit;
you are looking for an exhaustive legal charter;
you want to transform all your processes in a single day.

Experience

Three stages to observe, experiment and make better decisions.

The workshop is built from the practices, professions, and real situations of the organization.

It combines reflection, experimentation, group discussion and the creation of directly applicable rules. Insights from the neuroscience of learning inform the approach without becoming a spectacular promise or a theoretical discourse.

01Observe

Make existing uses and habits visible.

Participants identify the tasks for which they are already using AI, the gains they perceive, the difficulties encountered, and the situations in which they spontaneously trust it.

This mapping reveals gaps in practices, areas of ambiguity, and common questions, without judging individuals or pitting enthusiastic users against the more cautious ones.

Start from actual uses, not assumed ones.

02Experiment

Compare what humans, AI, and their collaboration produce.

Starting from professional cases, participants perform the same task using several methods: without AI, with the help of AI, and then with a genuine phase of human verification, enrichment, and judgment.

They compare the time invested, the quality of the result, relevance, uniqueness, errors, and necessary corrections. This allows them to identify the optimal distribution of work according to the situation.

Do not organize a duel between the brain and the machine, but build the right combination.

03Build

Turn lessons into concrete rules of use.

Together, participants define what AI can prepare, propose, or automate, what must be systematically verified, and what must remain under human responsibility.

They also identify the data that should not be shared, the skills they wish to continue exercising, and a first pilot project to be conducted within the following 30 days.

Move from individual use to a collective, deliberate and responsible practice.

The challenge in figures

The more AI produces, the more strategic human judgement becomes.

49%

professional conversations analyzed with Copilot support cognitive activities: analysis, problem-solving, evaluation and creativity.

86%

Respondents state that they consider the AI's response as a starting point, rather than a final answer from which they would disengage.

46%

consider that critical thinking becomes more important as AI takes on an increasing share of the work.

The conference helps create a common language among a broad audience. The sprint then allows testing one or two use cases in actual practices.

Straight answers to your questions

Five questions before designing the workshop.

What is the workshop fee?

Pricing is determined by quote based on duration, number of participants, level of customization, professional situations to be addressed, and any additional deliverables.

Is this a prompt training?

No. Prompt quality may be discussed, but it is not the workshop’s main focus. The work centres on uses, verification, quality of judgement, task allocation and human accountability.

Should participants already use AI?

No. The format can accommodate people with very different levels of experience. An approved tool is nevertheless required for the experimentation phases.

Can we work from confidential situations?

Cases must be anonymized or constructed from fictitious data, unless the organization has a secure environment and explicitly authorizes the use of the relevant data.

What happens after the workshop?

Participants leave with rules and a 30-day experiment. The organization can then continue independently or engage an Adoption Sprint to deepen one or two priority use cases.
