#JustOneMoreThing

[Dr Sam Parrett CBE @samparrett1]

One of the things I’m buzzing about at today’s deep dive #JOMT AI conference @hullcollegegrp @educationgovuk is the huge sense of collaboration within and beyond the sector. This afternoon we are hearing from @Humberbeat @UniOfHull @CBItweets @ThinkCloudInc @ManterraLTD about how AI is solving wicked problems and improving productivity - we are stronger together and this collegiate approach to shared learning is absolutely fascinating. Thanks again to @Deb_Gray_1 @DebKellsey @RobLawson1 for pulling together this fantastic line up #HelloFuture2025

[Hull College @hullcollegegrp]

Today’s #JustOneMoreTime panel brought views from policing, healthcare, agriculture, industry, and construction together.

Thank you to our speakers from @Humberbeat, @UniOfHull, @CBItweets, @ThinkCloudInc & @ManterraLTD.

Collaboration is key to unlocking AI’s potential!
