Leveraging AI with Critical Thinking

When critical thinking drives AI use, the results are more accurate, more useful, and more trustworthy.

Description

AI tools are only as effective as the thinking behind them. Without intentional critical thinking, AI can produce outputs that are vague, inaccurate, or misleading. This program gives participants the skills to use AI as a precision instrument, not just a shortcut.

Participants will learn to craft prompts that guide AI toward clear and relevant results, evaluate outputs with a discerning eye, and refine responses into decision-ready information.

Audience

Professionals in a manager role, individual contributors, or leaders of any kind.

Outcomes

Participants will walk away with these skills:

  • Using prompt engineering intentionally to guide AI toward clear, relevant, and high-quality responses
  • Evaluating AI-generated outputs critically by checking for accuracy, identifying assumptions, and refining responses to remove error and express your/your brand’s voice
  • Strengthening analysis through iterative prompting by asking follow-up questions and exploring alternative perspectives to deepen insights
  • Understanding when and how to cite AI, including when disclosure is appropriate and how to judge the reliability of AI‑provided sources
