Jenni Munroe, host of JEN_AI, tackles her latest challenge: using AI tools to create and deliver an inspirational TED-style talk to 100 computer science students. She highlights her process of leveraging chatbots like ChatGPT and tools like Gamma App to generate her presentation deck. Despite feeling rusty after returning from maternity leave, she shares clips from the talk touching on imposter syndrome, the importance of experimenting, and cultivating a public personal brand. She draws inspiration from model Cameron Russell’s TED talk and emphasizes the significance of sharing one’s goals and work with others. Additionally, the episode features a segment about artist Maggie Rogers’ breakout music moment, stressing the importance of sharing your art and your authentic self with the world.
