I have worked with organisations across a growing range of industries, including higher education, construction, finance, manufacturing, and creative and professional services. The frameworks I apply are similar in each, but the specific examples and use cases vary and come from making the material bespoke to your business.

What people say

About The Red Giant

Hello, I'm Rufus, the founder of The Red Giant. I believe AI is an extremely powerful tool, but it should not be used for everything. AI should augment us rather than replace us. AI education helps you learn what AI can do and how to use it, and decide where to use it and what to keep human.
