Corné Botha and Witbank News advertising representative, Annatjie du Toit enjoying a cup fof coffee at New Life Church Business Breakfast held on August 1.

AI, some fear it, some struggle to understand it, and there are others who embrace the technology.

“Don’t be afraid of AI,” were the first words Pastor Ryan Langkilde said when he gave the business sector an overview of the exciting world of AI.

“Think of AI as your personal assistant that never takes leave, never takes a lunch break, is always available 24/7, and never back-chats,” Ryan said with a chuckle.

Ryan was the guest speaker at the business breakfast hosted by New Life Church on August 1.

Over 100 people attended the business get-together.
