SUMMARY:Marin SBDC Presents: Advance Your AI Skills
DESCRIPTION:Marin SBDC\, in partnership with Marin Builders Association and Marin Council of Chambers Presents: Build Your Own AI Assistant: Customizing Today's AI Tools\n\n\n\nGeneric chatbots are nice   but a bot that speaks using your brand language and voice\, knows your products\, and remembers your preferences is a game-changer.\n\n\n\nIn this session you'll learn how to take today's mainstream AI tools (ChatGPT\, Copilot\, Claude\, and Gemini) and make them distinctly yours without writing a single line of code or spending big on custom development. You'll watch live demos on building a Custom GPT\, feeding it your own content\, and setting up accounts so every conversation feels like it was trained by your team.\n\n\n\nWe'll explore low-cost ways to give AI the "brains" of your business uploading FAQs\, policies\, and style guides plus smart tricks for guiding tone\, restricting answers\, and storing helpful memories.\n\n\n\nYou'll walk away able to:\n\n	Personalize ChatGPT (and Copilot) accounts with brand-voice instructions and memory settings.\n	Build a Custom GPT in minutes upload docs\, set rules\, and publish a shareable link.\n	Set guardrails & privacy controls to protect proprietary data and keep outputs on-brand.\n	Create a "teaching checklist" you can reuse whenever you onboard new AI tools or teammates.\n\n\n\nInstructor Cathy Balach is an online marketing strategist\, specializing in strategic marketing\, website design\, content development\, email communications\, and media for business growth. She's a certified SBDC AI Specialist and known for her innovative approach to using artificial intelligence to drive business growth.\n\n\n\nRegister Here
