AI Cyclops Workshops

14/10/2026

Bedford, we’re heading your way tomorrow!

The AI Cyclops is exhibiting at Your Business Expo Bedfordshire, and we’d love you to pop over and say hello. Business MK

Ever thought, “AI sounds useful, but what would I actually use it for?”
That’s exactly the conversation we want to have.

We’ll be giving live demonstrations and exploring practical ways to tackle those jobs that eat into your day, from marketing content and repetitive admin to ideas for better websites and business tools.

Bring a question, a task you’re tired of doing or an idea you’ve been putting off. You don’t need to know anything about AI to get started.

You can also join Andy’s free practical AI seminar at 2:15pm. Register for the expo and book your seminar place through the event app. Business MK

Tomorrow, Thursday 15 October
10am to 3pm
Bedford International Athletic Stadium
Barkers Lane, Bedford, MK41 9SB

Free exhibition entry and parking.

Step away from the inbox and into a conversation that could make a difference to your business.

Join us for The AI Cyclops Networking Morning, bringing local business owners together for friendly conversations, fresh ideas and practical AI.
At our last event, we created custom promotional music tracks for businesses in around 120 seconds. It sparked some brilliant conversations about what else might be possible.

But you don’t need to know anything about AI to enjoy the morning.
Come along to meet people, share what you’re working on and discover something useful. Whether you’re arriving on your own or catching up with familiar faces, you’ll be warmly welcomed.

Still using ChatGPT like a glorified search engine?

You're probably missing out on some of its biggest benefits.

ChatGPT can help businesses:

• Cut down time spent on everyday admin

• Create better marketing content

• Research ideas and opportunities

• Write emails, proposals and reports

• Turn rough ideas into practical action plans

But there's a big difference between simply asking ChatGPT a question and knowing how to get genuinely useful results.

That's exactly what we teach at The AI Cyclops ChatGPT Masterclass.

It's hands-on, practical and designed for real people running real businesses.

No jargon. No technical background required. Just skills you can put to work immediately.

Another successful Claude AI masterclass at The AI Cyclops!

A big thank you to Alex and Kacper for running a brilliant session, and to everyone who joined us and got involved. Really proud to see the team delivering workshops like this.

For me, this is what practical AI learning should look like. Laptops open, questions welcome and people exploring how these tools could actually help in their working day.

You don’t need to understand every technical term or know what every button does. You just need somewhere to ask questions, try things out and find a useful starting point.

That’s what we’re here for.

A really enjoyable session with a great group of people. Thank you for being part of it!

Fancy joining our next masterclass?

Whether you’re getting started or looking to build on what you already know, come along and put practical AI to work.

Explore our upcoming masterclasses and book your place through the link in our bio.

Bring your laptop and your questions. We’ll help you with the rest.

OpenAI Just Made a Physical Controller for AI Agents

OpenAI has released the Codex Micro, a physical control pad designed for working with Codex AI agents.
It costs around $230 and lets users launch workflows, manage agent tasks and even adjust reasoning levels using a physical dial.

It’s not really a normal keyboard. It’s more like a dedicated control centre for AI.

And that raises the bigger question:

Are we heading towards a future where managing AI agents becomes as normal as using a keyboard and mouse?

Would you use one?

The Great AI Debate: AI, Opportunity, Threat or Both?
Friday 16 October, 1:00pm to 5:00pm

This one is going to be very different.

We’re bringing together business leaders, educators, technology professionals, creatives and people from across the community to debate the questions that really matter.

Will AI create more opportunities than it removes?

What happens to jobs?

Can we trust AI?

How will it change education, creativity and business?

And ultimately, is AI an opportunity, a threat, or both?

The audience will be part of the conversation too, with questions, voting and live debate throughout the afternoon.

Tickets are completely FREE.

Reserve your place here:
https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-great-ai-debate-ai-opportunity-threat-or-both-tickets-1999580284458

Come to one, or come to both.

October is going to be a big month for The AI Cyclops, and we’d love to have you there.
