From ChatGPT to AI Agents: What Professionals Need to Learn Now
WorkshopIn person
AI is moving fast. Most people have tried ChatGPT, but very few understand what comes next: AI agents.
This first meetup by AI Trainings Benelux is designed to explain, in simple and practical terms, how AI agents work and why they matter for professionals, teams, startups, and organizations.
We will go beyond basic prompting and discuss how AI can support real workflows: using tools, retrieving information, remembering context, following instructions, and working with human oversight.
During this session, we will cover:
The difference between ChatGPT, copilots, and AI agents
What AI agents can actually do in professional contexts
Key concepts such as RAG, memory, tools, MCP, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop
Why data quality and governance still matter
How professionals can start learning AI without getting lost in the hype
Practical examples of how AI agents can support business workflows
This event is for professionals, students, founders, analysts, consultants, project managers, and anyone who wants to understand how AI can be used beyond simple chat conversations.
No advanced technical background is required.
The goal is simple: help people understand what is coming, what is already useful, and how to start building real AI literacy.
Come if you want to learn, ask questions, and meet people interested in AI, data, automation, and the future of work.
