The AI Brown Bag Series is a monthly, informal learning opportunity for NAU faculty and staff to explore how AI can support both work and everyday life.
\nEach session focuses on practical, real-world use cases\u2014from managing email and staying organized to exploring creativity, learning, and personal workflows. Some sessions are more productivity-focused, while others lean into more exploratory or creative uses of AI. The goal is to give you ideas you can adapt in ways that are useful to you.<\/p>\n\n
Rather than following a fixed track, the Brown Bag Series rotates through different themes to reflect the range of ways AI can be used.<\/p>\n
