AI in your work.
On your terms.

Training and practical support for professionals and teams. We build a method around your tasks: one you can use, check and repeat. I teach AI to be human. · @basicfede_
01 / Work with me

How we can
work together.

Start with a question, a task that takes too much time or a whole team. Our free 15-minute introductory call helps us find the right way to work together.

One specific problem

Individual consultation

Already using AI and wondering what you could do better? Or do you have a task you want to work through with someone?

A ninety-minute individual session. We look at how you work, try things on your actual task and identify your next steps.

Discuss your task

A method of your own

One-to-one programme

You want to make AI part of your daily work: documents, research, content and the tasks you repeat every week.

Four ninety-minute individual sessions, with practice in between. We build context, instructions and procedures you can use independently.

Discuss your programme

Working together

Training for teams

Everyone uses different tools, information is scattered and the team needs a shared way of working with AI.

We start with your roles and tasks. Training and practical workshops use your own materials; we discuss the programme and any individual support on our call.

The AI foundations course

“Parlare con le macchine”: video lessons, demonstrations and exercises to understand AI and start applying it to your work. The course is taught in Italian.

02 / The method

I won't turn you
into a robot.

AI becomes a prosthesis for thought: it walks beside you, not in your place.

The current rhetoric asks you to keep up: more output, more speed, less time to think. It is the surest way to resemble the machine instead of using it.

I start from the other side. We look at how you actually work, your method, your quirks, your taste, and we build around that a flow where AI does the mechanical part and you remain the mind.

From there, a creative goes back to creating and a professional goes back to their craft, getting the most out of what AI can offer. Not less human: more human, with one more tool.

03 / In practice

Start with the work
you do every day.

These are some of the problems we can work on together. Bring your materials, choose a task and work through it from the first step to checking the result.

01

Documents and research

Your archive is full, but every search starts from scratch.

We work on organising sources, giving AI the right context and checking where an answer comes from.

02

Recurring tasks

You repeat the same steps across files, reports and updates.

We identify what is worth delegating and build reusable instructions or small automations, with clear points for human review.

03

Writing and creative work

The content is correct, but it could have been written by anyone.

We start with your examples and your taste. AI helps you explore ideas, prepare materials and revise them using criteria that reflect your work.

On our first call, tell me what you do, what you have tried and where you get stuck. Then we define the goals, format and proposal.

04 / Federica Nardi

Translating machines
into something human.

I hold a PhD in human sciences and my education runs from economics through philosophy. I used to be a journalist; today I am an AI and communication expert, and for years I have been teaching generative AI: at universities, in newsrooms, in professional firms, in companies.

People call me a prompt designer, but the real job is another one: translating machines into something a normal person can use without becoming a different person. I come from the humanities and I care about that. Art, role-playing games, video games: that is the perspective I bring when I teach AI, and it is why I will never sell it to you as magic or as a threat.
