Three events behind me, one webinar tomorrow

The last few weeks have been packed with AI events.

Webinars, podcasts, and demo days, with even more coming up. If you can’t get enough of AI in events right now, here’s all of the past and present event content I recommend you check out.

Tomorrow: deep dive on GPTs with Jessica Sibila and The Exhibitor Advocate

Tomorrow, May 6, 12:00pm–1:30pm CT, I'm running "Deep Dive on GPTs for Event Professionals: From Theory to Action" with Jessica Sibila, CMP CTSM, Executive Director at The Exhibitor Advocate.

Ninety minutes on Zoom. We'll cover:

• Free vs paid GPT use — when each one earns its keep

• The three frontier labs (OpenAI, Google, Anthropic) and how to pick between them

• A live walkthrough of the custom GPTs I use daily

• Responsible-use watch-outs every event team should know

Registration is open. Save your seat here.

Northstar webinar replay is up

The April 22 AI for Event Planners workshop with Northstar was an interactive 60-minute build, not a slide deck. Erin Lease Hall (CTSM, DrFirst) joined Michael and me to build executive dinner concepts from scratch — each one paired with a real prompt the room could copy and run.

Watch the replay here.

Boldpush Demo Day — deeper take coming Thursday

I moderated Boldpush AI's Demo Day on April 30 with Julius Solaris, four blocks plus the open and close. It was a ton of fun and featured 30+ founders from around the world showing how AI can solve real event problems. If you’re looking to find the recording, you can find it by joining BoldPush Plus, Julius’s community.

I'll publish my deeper take on the Boldpush demos this Thursday, along with the tools I recommend event professionals try.

My dad and I just did our first podcast together

Mallory Mejias hosted Adam Cheyer (Siri co-creator, also my dad) and me on Sidecar Sync Episode 131, released April 28.

Sixty minutes of father-son conversation on AI. We covered the road from 1993 to Siri, Adam's "trends and triggers" framework for spotting what's next, what AI should never do at events, and why AI conference talks are shifting from hype to hands-on workshops.

If you want the long view from someone who's been building this stuff since before the App Store existed, paired with where AI is actually landing in events today, it's worth the hour.

That's the wrap from the last few weeks. If any of it sparked a question or an idea you're chewing on, hit reply, I read every one.

Till next time,
Noah Cheyer

Do More With Less Using AI

PS: Julius Solaris is the person behind Boldpush. He's been pushing the events industry to take AI seriously longer than almost anyone, and the Demo Day format is the cleanest version of that I've seen. More collaborations coming in the future, and worth following him if you're not already.
