SCORE: Protecting Your Thinking Space with AI

AI can generate ideas fast, but more ideas do not automatically mean better thinking. In this practical small-group session, Arthur Zards will help participants learn how to use AI without letting it take over their thinking. Participants will explore a simple method called “3 Out, 3 Wide, 3 Deep” to expand ideas, see different perspectives, and go deeper with better questions. This session is designed for people who are newer to AI and want a more human, intentional way to work with it.

Arthur Zards is an AI sensemaking strategist, keynote speaker, and founder of Lab Z. He helps individuals and organizations think more clearly in a world being rapidly changed by AI.

Arthur brings a rare mix of technology, storytelling, and human experience design. He co-founded an internet service provider in the early 1990s, before most people had seen a web browser, and has spent decades helping leaders communicate ideas that create change.

Through his Vibe with AI work, Arthur teaches practical frameworks that help people move beyond AI anxiety and use AI as a thinking partner, not just a productivity tool. His current work focuses on helping people protect their Thinking Space, strengthen judgment, and take responsibility for what they create with AI.
