How to Survive AI in the Workplace," Gilda Alvarez breaks down the reality of working in an era where technology is advancing faster than careers can keep up. She exposes the coming workforce divide created by data analytics and Artificial Intelligence—where some roles will expand, many will transform, and others simply won’t survive. Rather than fear this shift, Gilda empowers her audience with a roadmap for resilience: understand the technology, anticipate the change, and actively upskill before disruption arrives. Her message is both a warning and a lifeline, emphasizing that technical fluency—especially in analytics, automation, and AI-assisted tooling—will determine who thrives in the next era of work. Gilda positions Microsoft Copilot as the modern professional’s lifesaver, a force-multiplier that helps employees accelerate learning, automate repetitive tasks, and stay competitive in an AI-driven world. Her talk equips attendees with the clarity and survival skills needed not only to navigate the AI revolution, but to harness its power and strategically redesign their careers for the future.
