Artificial Intelligence is everywhere—writing emails, analyzing data, and summarizing meetings. But in a world where AI can do so much, how do we make sure it doesn’t replace what makes us human?

That’s the central question at the upcoming Gilbert Young Professionals (GYP) Lunch & Learn featuring Stuart Preston, owner of Cingularis. In his session, “Don’t Outsource Your Soul: AI, Agency, and Showing Up Human,” Stuart will explore how to harness the power of AI without sacrificing the creativity, critical thinking, and human instincts that make us irreplaceable.

Why This Event Matters

AI offers efficiency—but convenience can come at a cost. If we’re not careful, we risk dulling our judgment, eroding trust, and losing our human edge. This session will help participants:

  • See AI through a new lens: how to use it while staying authentically human
  • Learn a simple 3-step “Human-AI Code” to guide workplace decisions
  • Understand how to enhance—rather than replace—creativity, communication, and critical thinking

Whether you’re exploring ways to integrate AI into your business or simply want to better understand what everyone is talking about, this workshop will provide clarity, confidence, and practical tools you can use right away.
