The person behind AI Training Australia

Meet Rikki Dryden

I’ve spent more than 20 years working in business development, operations, finance, administration and events, including running my own businesses. I love helping people find better ways to work.

Business development is a bit of an obsession for me. I’m always exploring how technology can make day-to-day operations simpler and more efficient, and my recent work includes AI business integration and creating websites and apps.

With AI Training Australia, I’m bringing that practical business experience to plain-English learning: useful ideas, sensible safeguards and small steps you can try in your own business.

A prompt is just a clear instruction. Tell the AI who to be, the job, the facts and the format, and it does the heavy lifting.

Key takeaway

Be specific. "Write a friendly follow-up to a customer who hasn't paid" beats "write an email".
