Experiential Learning with AI: From Rapid Prototyping to Nano Sims with Mike Vaughn at The Regis Company


Listen Later

Check out this groundbreaking chat with Mike Vaughan, the CEO of The Regis Company. We dove deep into the world of artificial intelligence, exploring its

game-changing potential for reshaping experiential learning. The takeaway? It's not only impressive but crucial in the evolving landscape of L&D.
We looked at how AI and simulations are no longer exclusive to tech giants or reserved for extravagant budgets. Mike shared how advancements democratize the process, making it easier and faster than ever to create engaging learning experiences. We also explored how AI is drastically accelerating the design phase of learning solutions, bringing rapid prototyping to our fingertips.
One of the key shifts we tackled is the transition from a traditional "fully-formed blueprint" mindset to an iterative approach. This fresh perspective allows us to adapt, experiment, and make adjustments swiftly, a necessary skill in this dynamic landscape. Yes, it's uncomfortable, but hey, who said growth was easy?
We're also saying goodbye to the era of giant behemoth simulations and hello to the age of 'nano Sims'. Bite-sized, digestible, and just as impactful -
that's the future, folks. But don't just take my word for it. Mike's insights and first-hand experience truly bring this vision to life.
So, if you're curious about how AI is revolutionizing learning and development or want to discover practical tips for dipping your toes in
this AI-infused pool, you've got to watch this conversation. We've only just scratched the surface here. See you on the inside!
