Everyone has a role. Whether you run a store, teach at a school, code apps, or simply care about your community, there’s a seat for you at The Heart AI table. Here’s how you (and your colleagues) can jump in today:
- Small Business Owners & Managers: Join our AI Business Accelerator. We will help you apply AI to your daily operations: automating marketing, forecasting sales, or improving customer service. Host an in-store workshop or pilot a new AI app for your team. (Remember: 82% of fellow business owners already believe AI is crucialreimaginemainstreet.org – now they’re getting ahead. Will you?)
- Educators & School Leaders: Become an AI champion in education. Incorporate our AI curriculum into your classrooms. Lead a student AI club or inter-school competition. Train your teachers with our summer institutes so they confidently guide students “for the age of Artificial Intelligence”aiedu.org. Your school can be the first in your district to win the AI Challenge we’re launching with local partners.
- Volunteers & Tech Enthusiasts: Share your skills by mentoring a workshop or tutoring a student in coding and AI. Help set up an AI lab in a community center. We’ll pair you with a team (maybe a local nonprofit or library) where your knowledge will have immediate impact. Imagine turning AI-curious retirees into confident users, or helping veterans build AI-driven small businesses.
- Students & Youth: Don’t wait to be “allowed” into the AI club – create one! Use our free online courses and AI tools to start projects now. Compete in our hackathons, apply for innovation scholarships, or organize peer-to-peer learning groups. Today’s AI-savvy teenagers will be tomorrow’s local CEOs, teachers, and mayors – get that experience early!
- Educators & Trainers: Invite us to your faculty meetings or professional groups. We’ll demonstrate how AI can amplify learning (personalized tutoring, automating grading, etc.) and help you lead community classes for parents and neighbors.
- Community & Faith Leaders: Spread the word at your next meeting or event. Organize a town hall on AI opportunity and ethics. Partner with us to host a fundraising event – make AI a common cause. Your voice can normalize AI as an uplifting change, not a mysterious threat.
Act now, spaces fill quickly! The first group of cities (and companies) who join will get exclusive support: extra funding, a dedicated AI mentor, and publicity as local pioneers. Show your people that their leaders are innovators, not spectators. Every week counts in this AI “arms race.”
