Throwback to Big Data LDN last year, where we had brilliant conversations about data, AI, and the skills organizations need to turn both into real business impact.

We’re looking forward to doing it all again next week. Find General Assembly at Booth N129 for AI training possibilities, practical insights, and plenty of popcorn.

Smaller companies have a new advantage in the competition for talent.

81% of SMB leaders say layoffs at larger organizations have improved their ability to recruit and retain employees. Nearly half have already hired talent from larger firms in the past year.

Combined with the right development strategy, this influx of experience could help growth-stage companies move faster and get more from AI.

We’re back from LEAP with plenty of big ideas, new connections, and one question that kept surfacing:

What actually needs to change for AI to become part of how people work?

For many organizations, the answer goes beyond adding new tools to existing workflows. It means reimagining how work gets done from the start, then giving people the skills, support, and confidence to adopt those new ways of working.

It boils down to this. No matter how quickly the technology evolves, turning its potential into meaningful, everyday impact will always require an investment in people.

Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation at LEAP. We’re excited to see where all the ideas shared lead next.

Introducing Humans of GA, a new series celebrating the people, personalities, and stories that make General Assembly what it is.

First up, meet Erick Dominguez, a Senior Account Director who’s spent the past seven years building meaningful connections and helping people prepare for the future of work.

Erick once planned to become a genie. These days, he uses AI to handle some of the boring stuff so he can spend more time on genuine human connection.

In our first Humans of GA profile, Erick shares how AI has changed the way he works, why making people feel seen is his real superpower, and what he wishes he could tell his younger self.

Great conversations. Thoughtful perspectives. Plenty of ideas to bring home.

Cari Perez and Katie Cyboron had an incredible time at Learning Futures in San Francisco, connecting with leaders asking important questions about the future of organizational learning.

How can learning keep pace with change? What helps new skills translate into real performance? And how do we build learning experiences that truly support people?

Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation.

Successful AI adoption starts at the top, but it can’t stop there.

In San Diego, General Assembly partnered with LHH to help leaders understand how AI can work alongside them in HR, from enhancing everyday workflows to supporting better, more informed decisions.

When leaders learn by doing, they’re better prepared to guide their teams through change. Together, GA and LHH are helping organizations implement AI responsibly, build confidence across the workforce, and ensure employees are equipped to thrive in an AI-enabled workplace.

AI was supposed to replace people. So why are AI leaders changing their tune?

In his latest Fast Company Executive Board article, Daniele Grassi explores the gap between AI’s capabilities and what actually happens when people use it at work.

The takeaway? Giving employees access to AI isn’t enough. Organizations need to invest in their people as well as their tech. Because real impact comes from building the skills to use AI effectively, applying it to real work, and developing people who know when to trust it, question it, and improve on it.

SMBs are winning because they’re putting effort in and emphasis on building AI talent.
In our latest research, we surveyed 526 HR and L&D leaders at businesses with 50–999 employees across the US and UK to understand how AI is reshaping their businesses and their workforces.

The results reveal a distinctly human approach to AI transformation:
→ 87% are already seeing ROI from AI
→ 70% are investing in AI skills training
→ 67% plan to hire more employees this year
→ 64% are prioritizing upskilling their existing teams

The businesses pulling ahead aren’t choosing between people and technology. They’re investing in both.
