A welcome from NSU

Northeastern State University is proud to welcome Dr. Lisa Palmer to our Broken Arrow campus. Her work brings together rigorous research and real-world application, exactly the combination our cybersecurity and AI programs need as the workforce adapts to rapid technological change. Having a globally recognized AI leader building her own AI-native company right here in the Tulsa region makes this especially meaningful. This event gives Oklahoma professionals the opportunity to move beyond simply learning about AI and begin developing the practical skills and judgment to use it effectively.”

How the day runs

Eight hours, laptops open. Every session ends with something you built.

Laptops open all day. Every session uses your real work.

Morning

Build

Partnering with AI on your real tasks.

  1. Ground rules: where AI helps, and where it fails

    How these tools work, where they get things wrong, and what should never go into them.

  2. Tool triage: match the model to the job

    Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot side by side on the same real task.

  3. Build 1: rebuild your costliest recurring task

    Work through real scenarios from your role and turn them into finished documents.

  4. Investigation-grade research: sources, verification, audit trail

    Perplexity for sourced answers, and NotebookLM to turn your documents into briefings.

Midday

Connect

Skills and connectors that work your way.

  1. Lunch and open Q&A with Dr. Lisa

    Lunch is included. Bring your hardest AI questions from your own work.

  2. Skills: build once, use every day

    Turn a task you repeat into a reusable skill with your rules, format, and checks built in. You'll build two for your role.

  3. Connectors: plug AI into your email, files, and calendar

    Connect AI to your email, files, and calendar so it works with your real information. No more copying and pasting.

Afternoon

Lead

Hand off whole workflows, pressure-test them, and plan how to bring it to your team.

  1. MCP and agents: let AI work across your systems

    Connect AI to outside systems and hand off a multi-step workflow from start to finish, including AI that clicks through websites for you.

  2. Pressure test: a live scenario with real consequences

    Put it all together on a real scenario from your work.

  3. Your 30-day plan and book signing

    Leave with your personal playbook and a signed copy of Show AI—Don't Tell It.

  4. Close

What this looks like in the field

Results from the same hands-on curriculum, delivered to a public-safety operation.

Investigations

Recorded calls turned into searchable transcripts for investigators.

Security

AI-assisted analysis helped staff flag and stop a serious security risk.

Finance

Monthly federal billing rebuilt as a reusable AI skill, with human sign-off.

Operations

Public website built in-house, with no agency.

The tools you'll use

  • Claude
  • ChatGPT
  • Gemini
  • Perplexity
  • NotebookLM
  • Comet agentic browser
  • Microsoft Copilot
  • and more

Working inside these tools with skills, connectors, and MCP. You'll get setup steps before the day.

Same AI. Different people. Different results.

I've seen that gap from every seat: buyer, seller, advisor, and researcher. Organizations roll out the same tools. A few people pull ahead, and everyone else drifts back to the old way of working. This day is built to put you in the first group. You'll work on your own tasks, and you'll leave using what you built. I'm launching my 2026-27 hands-on tour starting in the Tulsa area because this is home.
