My Beliefs and Values
Here are my beliefs and values when it comes to AI:
- AI should be used for work augmentation and be human-centered.
- I want to show how you and your team can do your job with AI, and not how AI can do your job for you.
- I want to help people learn and develop important life skills with the assistance of AI.
- I want to prevent people from becoming overly reliant on AI to the point where they lose the ability to function without it.
- I want to protect people from malicious or abusive uses of AI.
Access the AI Course
To access the AI Course, simply go to AI Course. The first chapter is free, and you can get the full course for the fair price of a one-month ChatGPT Plus subscription ($20).
AI Course for Your Entire Company - Online
Whether you are aware of it or not, your employees are using ChatGPT.
Ensure they are using it correctly. You can purchase the course in bulk for all your employees. Simply calculate the number of employees multiplied by $20 and contact director@jon-ai.com. We will create a specific code for your company so each license can only be used once. You can then send a company-wide email granting access to the course. Please be aware that for corporate customers we are required to add a tax/VAT fee.
Give your employees some time to take the course, then arrange a meeting to discuss AI with them.
AI Course for Your Entire Company - Online with a Live Session
The procedure is the same as the online-only option, but with the addition of a live lesson with me, either in person or via Zoom.
My rate for a live session is $500 USD per day via Zoom or $1500 USD per day for an in-person visit. A Specific program and learning materials will be provided as well as a Q&A session with me.
AI Topics I Love to Tackle in Workshops or Seminars
- The best principles and tools for AI work augmentation, and how to safely bring AI into the office while protecting your data and intellectual IP.
- A Human-Centric Approach to AI.
- How to use AI in education and the changes AI is causing in the educational landscape.
- How to use AI for personal tutoring and how it can democratize access to education.
- AI Safety: Why agentic and self-improving AI should be treated with the same caution as the atomic bomb.
- The case for reserving agentic and self-improving AI exclusively for space exploration, not for use on Earth.
Meet Stélio Inácio: AI Educator & Consultant
Stélio Inácio is the founder and CEO of Jon AI, a technology company whose mission is to equalize and advance the human race. He established Jon AI in 2021, when AI was still an obscure concept to many, long before the arrival of ChatGPT. At that time, his vision was clear: that someday we would communicate with computers using natural language — and that the bridge to this future would be clever algorithms.
As the AI landscape evolved, Stélio remained ahead of the curve. He became an early adopter of AI tools, experimenting with GPT-3 when most were unaware of its existence. He has since been helping organizations navigate the AI revolution — from strategy to implementation — with clarity and vision.
His online course, now available to the public, was created in response to a maturing AI ecosystem. The course is designed not only to inspire awe at what AI can do, but to also promote critical thinking about its risks and limits. Today, he continues to blend optimism with caution, working as a passionate educator and advisor across industries.
