The Fox + Spindle Salon | April 2026
Because not everything worth discussing fits on a slide.
There's a lot of noise out there about AI. The Salon is our antidote. Once a month, we gather a room of curious, sharp people for real conversation—not webinars, not sales pitches, not death-by-PowerPoint. We'll bring our own ideas and questions, but we expect you will, too. Pull up a chair.

Stop Asking AI to Write Emails: You’re Embarrassing Us Both
You wouldn’t buy a sports car just to drive to the mailbox. So why are you making AI write your emails? Come see what happens when you actually put it to work.
The Boring Stuff That Matters
Let’s talk about the part of AI adoption everyone avoids: policies, governance, and compliance. It’s often unclear, inconsistent, and wildly underestimated. If you’re the adult in the room—or wish someone else was—this one’s for you.
Corporate Fanfiction
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to teach your AI to match your tone, adjust your company voice, and rewrite your most-used messages so they’re clearer, warmer, and unmistakably you.
Build-A-Bot Workshop
In this hands-on session, we’ll walk you through the basics of building your own AI-powered helper—from defining its purpose to writing instructions it can actually follow.
Abandon Prompt! What Sinks AI Pilots...
Most AI pilots fail—not because the tech doesn’t work, but because the humans didn’t know what to do next. This session is for anyone who’s launched an AI experiment, only to watch it stall, fizzle, or quietly vanish.
Prompt or Be Prompted
In this session, we’ll break down how to talk to AI in ways that actually get results. Whether you're new to prompting or already tinkering, you’ll leave with real-world techniques you can use immediately.
The Art of Arguing with Robots
Sometimes, getting great results from AI isn’t about asking better questions — it’s about giving better roles. In this lively, practical session, you'll learn how to cast AI in the character you need: a skeptical client, a daring innovator, a tough editor, or whatever friction (or support) your project demands. By shaping AI’s personality through smart roleplay, you’ll learn how to work with it, work around it, and even push it past its defaults. We’ll teach you how to design prompts that unlock better ideas, spot lazy answers, and build the confidence to steer your AI exactly where you want it to go.
AI 101: Hype, Hope, and How It Actually Works
If AI feels like magic, hype, or complete chaos… you’re in the right place. In this fast, friendly intro, we’ll break down what AI actually is (and isn’t), how it works behind the scenes, and how real humans are already using it to get smarter, faster, and a little weirder at work. No jargon. No math PhD required. Just practical tips, real examples, and the confidence to stop treating AI like a mystery and start using it like a power tool. Whether you're brand-new or just AI-curious, this is your on-ramp to the future.
Honey, I Shrunk the Workforce (with AI Agents)
What happens when you hand off the busywork to an AI? You shrink the to-do list. In this fast-paced session, we’ll break down what AI agents actually are (hint: not just fancy chatbots), what they can really do for you today, and how to start using them without accidentally unleashing chaos. You'll learn how to design agents that act, think, and troubleshoot across tasks — and how to tell the difference between a good idea and a disaster waiting to happen.
Pseudocode and Pseudogeniuses: Coding with AI
You don’t have to be a coding wizard to get useful work from GenAI, but you do need to know how to steer it. In this lively, practical session, we’ll show you how to use AI as your coding sidekick: writing rough drafts, fixing bugs, translating languages, and even faking expertise (responsibly). You'll learn how to frame good requests, sanity-check what AI gives you, and bridge the gap between "I have no idea how to do this" and "holy 🦊, this works." Whether you’re coding-curious or just trying to level up without Googling for three hours, this class will make AI your new favorite pseudogenius.
When 2 + 2 = Banana: AI’s Math Bloopers
Think GenAI is your personal calculator? Think again. In this fast, funny, and surprisingly practical session, we’ll show you how GenAI can help with math — and how it can absolutely lead you astray if you’re not careful. You’ll learn how to confidently tackle math problems that are a little (or a lot) above your current skill level, without pestering SMEs too early or turning rough drafts into rough disasters. We’ll cover real-world examples, common pitfalls, and simple tactics to spot when your AI assistant is making things up. By the end, you’ll know when to trust your GenAI, when to double-check, and how to keep the bananas out of your equations.
