Session Description
Automattic is a remote company. About 600 of us will step away from regular work this year for an immersive AI program. That's a little over a third of the company. This talk walks through a field report of what we built and why: the curriculum, the cohort design, and what we've learned about making AI fluency work across a distributed organization.
