Speaker: Jaswanth Tata / Murtaza Lookmanji AI is everywhere—and so is confusion. This practical, no-hype session shows you how to match the right tool to the right task so you get the right outcome. We’ll demystify agents, chatbots, copilots, visualizers, and automation platforms, compare their strengths and limits, and give you a simple decision framework you can reuse at work tomorrow. Expect crisp selection criteria, real Halifax use‑cases, red‑flag questions for vendors, quick evaluators (ROI, risk, privacy), and a takeaway matrix mapping common roles and workflows to proven tools. Leave with a vetted shortlist, smarter guardrails, and the confidence to say “no” to shiny‑but‑wrong AI choices.
