Omaha small business owners have an opportunity to learn how to use artificial intelligence to reach more customers and grow their businesses through a new program called Breakthrough 402.
The program is designed to turn AI from a buzzword into a practical tool, helping entrepreneurs create marketing content, follow up with customers and even build an AI assistant trained on their own business. Organizers are looking for 10 businesses for the pilot program.
