Masterclass: AI Agents with Claude and ChatGPT

Become a beneficiary of agentic AI, not a spectator. Learn how to hand your recurring work and private routines to AI agents that actually do them: email, documents, research, scheduling, follow-ups.

This masterclass is taught by someone who builds and runs AI agents every day. No theory, no vendor demo: the setups that work in practice, the mistakes that cost time and data, and the judgement for when not to automate.

Your trainer
Nick Gushchin — AI transformation lead at a large Swiss industrial company, applied-AI lecturer, and at the same time a student at ETH Zurich's Department of Computer Science, completing the CAS in Data and Machine Learning. Founder of the Head of AI Club Zurich. He is one of the few practitioners in Switzerland who builds and runs agentic systems daily rather than talking about them: 20+ AI tools built, and his own agents in production doing real work — the same kind of setups you will build in this session.

What you will do

• Understand what an AI agent really is: model, instructions, tools, memory, and where each one fails
• Set up a personal agent in Claude and a custom GPT in ChatGPT, side by side
• Connect them to real work: email, calendar, documents, research
• Automate one recurring task from your own business or personal life
• Learn the safety basics: data privacy, permissions, and when not to automate

You leave with

• Your own small team of working agents, built on your real tasks during the session
• A workbook: step-by-step guide to build, test and control your agents after the class
• A guardrails checklist: permissions, data privacy, what to check before you trust an agent
• A clear mental model to judge any new AI tool

Founders, managers, professionals and curious people who use ChatGPT or Claude but want them to do the work, not just answer questions. No coding needed.
