edpsy hosts Rich West – AI for EPs: risks, benefits and how to use tools safely

July 15 - 15:45 to 17:45
£30

Session overview

AI tools like ChatGPT, Copilot and Claude have quickly become part of people’s working life. Those who aren’t using AI can feel under pressure to start.

Our understanding of how these tools work, and where they don’t, hasn’t kept pace with how quickly they’ve been adopted by people and employers. That gap creates significant professional risk, with the news full of examples of how things can go wrong.

This webinar offers a practical, accessible introduction to AI tools for EPs with any level of experience. You’ll leave with a clear picture of the strengths of these tools, their weaknesses, and the broader implications of their use.

Session Outcomes

By the end of this webinar you will be able to:

  • ⁠understand how AI tools work (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot), their strengths and weaknesses
  • recognise the biggest risks and wider implications of using AI
  • ⁠judge where AI tools are most and least appropriate in your day-to-day work
  • ⁠apply a safe, critical approach when using them
