Edutech startup, 10XME Academy, announced the launch of its 10X AI training programs, a pioneering initiative designed to help entrepreneurs, corporate employees and students to leverage the best AI tools for elevating their productivity ten times. Bianca Azurin, founder of 10XME Academy, said the training offers hands-on and outcome-based classes curated to help their students accomplish their objectives. They prioritize practical learning, enabling students to achieve an increase in productivity within days, rather than weeks. The launch of the 10X AI training program, which will start next month August, comes amid increasing recognition of AI’s potential to enhance productivity. “AI is disrupting many industries and forcing many professionals to either upskill or find other work. Technology is the greatest equalizer and AI tools will prove that fairly quickly. With our courses, we want to challenge an organization's perceived limitations and allow them to take back their time. We want professionals and entrepreneurs to be confident using these tools to further their careers or future-proof their income,” said Azurin in a statement Monday, July 24. The edutech startup cited a recent study conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research demonstrated a 14 percent boost in issues resolved per hour with the aid of an AI-based conversational assistant. The study further suggested that AI assistance has been especially beneficial to novice and low-skilled workers, enabling them to glean potentially tacit knowledge from their more experienced peers and move down the experience curve. Industry leaders also predict a competitive edge for those who can effectively utilize advanced AI technologies, such as OpenAI's GPT-4. The findings underline AI’s integral role in accelerating productivity and support 10XME Academy’s mission to empower professionals and businesses through AI. The program goes in depth into how local companies can leverage AI tools to maximize every aspect of their marketing team’s output and performance. Students will learn how to craft effective marketing strategies, create and distribute content at scale, and implement AI tools into their daily operations. Prior to the official roll out of the actual four-day comprehensive programs, 10XME Academy conducted two pilot classes to gather initial feedback on its courses. 10XME  Academy also recognizes the  potential of the youth to achieve financial freedom even before graduating from college. The academy envisions working directly with schools to offer its programs as extracurricular weekend classes, helping students leverage AI tools to complement their existing skill sets and interests.
