Go1 + Gen AI: Unlocking creative learning journeys 

Pop quiz (don’t worry, we promise it’s easy): last week, did you do any of the following?  

• Ask ChatGPT a question 
• Create an image using DALL-E 
• Use an AI tool at work  

If you answered ‘yes,’ you’re not alone. That would make you one of ChatGPT’s 100 million weekly users, or the creator of one of DALL-E’s 14 million weekly images. Perhaps you work for one of the 35% of businesses that regularly use AI.  

The point is, AI has come a long way.  

A decade ago, this question would have seemed ridiculous. AI was a far-flung fantasy. Now, it's an everyday tool, useful for both work and leisure. And as the technology evolves, the future looks even brighter.  

Today, we’ll glimpse into that future, as we announce our latest product offering: Go1 AI. With Go1 AI, admins can turbocharge the content discovery, curation, and selection process, boosting productivity and efficiency through features like enhanced search functionality, AI chat, and advanced personalization options.  

We’ll share the key details of this new offering, discussing the benefits of Gen AI for personalized learning, before explaining Go1 AI’s features, showing how it supports admins, and sharing testimonials from some of our beta testers.  

Using Gen AI to personalize learning  

There aren’t many things that all L&D leaders agree on. However, the significance of personalized learning is an exception. A whopping 93% of high-performing organizations agree that personalized learning supports employees in reaching their professional goals more efficiently. Yet, achieving personalized learning is easier said than done — especially at scale. Enter, Go1 AI.   

Introducing, Go1 AI  

With Go1 AI, admins using Go1 can now create personalized experiences, with help from an unbeatable algorithm that sits on top of the largest content library for training, compliance, and personal development. 

Go1 AI includes several features that make admin’s lives easier. This means you can spend more time doing the work that really matters, leaving Go1 AI to handle the time-consuming curation.  

Key features 

AI-enhanced search 

Go beyond merely matching keywords to receive more contextually relevant results. As you search for content, Go1 AI understands the underlying intent behind your search query and adds suggestions, surfacing the best-matched recommendations by mapping out the Go1 library in seconds.  

AI chat 

With AI chat, you can refine, identify, and group skills, discover, compare, and filter content, ask clarifying questions, add content to your library, and more. Before long, we’ll be adding additional AI chat features, so stay tuned.  

Personalized playlists  

This is where personalized learning shines. Previously, personalized playlists had to be hand-curated. Now, Go1 AI lets L&D admins generate playlists from scratch based on their unique goals and parameters. Instead of browsing the entire library to manually create playlists, Go1 AI curates relevant, personalized playlists in seconds, making it scalable. Simply input your learning goals, refine your parameters, and let Go1 AI do the rest.

Smarter content recommendations  

Our approach sets us apart from other providers as we focus not on a single test or skill assessment, but on building comprehensive learner profiles to thoroughly understand learner’s needs. By asking relevant questions throughout the learning journey, we can consistently infer learners’ needs and recommend appropriate content. 

Supporting L&D admins 

Go1 AI is designed with L&D admins in mind. We want to make your lives easier. As Dan Hayward, Go1’s Chief Customer Officer, says, “empowering L&D admins is essential to supporting the learning journeys of our customers. Go1 AI provides ‘always on’ access to learning and supercharges the ability to tailor individual learning experiences to employees' preferences, needs and learning styles.” 

Go1 AI streamlines how admins search our library by sharing powerful content recommendations, comparing relevant courses, and curating tailored playlists. We believe this level of granularity empowers admins to deliver personalized learning like never before. 

What’s more, we're integrating AI across the board, embedding AI-powered insights directly into the Go1 product to support administrators throughout their workflow. We want to leverage AI to handle 80% of your task, ensuring it’s a powerful ally for L&D administrators. 

Beta test testimonials 

Don’t just take our word for it, Go1 AI has completed extensive beta testing with some of our existing customers and partners. Here’s what they had to say.  

“We appreciate the diversity of learning content available to us in the Go1 platform, but we don’t want to get stuck in choice overload when building content playlists,” said Andrew James, digital learning manager at Lloyd’s. “Go1 has streamlined our curation workflow while adding confidence that we found the most relevant content for our team as they explore their own learning and skills development.” 

Or, as Holger Seim, Chief Product Officer at Go1, put it, "Having a vast library of learning content isn’t enough to engage learners in the workplace. L&D leaders need to surface the right content at the right time for each learner to achieve the best outcomes. By leveraging the wealth of data within our content library, Go1 is in the best position to provide smarter recommendations to L&D departments so they can build the most personalized and effective learning programs for their people." 

Human-centric AI  

Don’t worry, among this talk of advanced features and artificial intelligence, we haven’t forgotten that our product is fundamentally for humans. Whether you’re worried AI will take your job, fearful of a robot uprising, or just overwhelmed by this whole AI thing, we’re here to reassure you: Go1 AI will always put humans first. Why? A couple of things set Go1 AI apart.  

Firstly, Go1 AI is trained on the world’s largest learning dataset. This matters because AI technology on its own is fundamentally imperfect. AI is only as good as the data it’s fed. That’s why stories of biased AI are common — you’ve probably heard some.  

To avoid this, Go1 AI utilizes information from 156 million yearly course completions, encompassing 130,000 data points from 250+ content providers in 48 languages. By leveraging data from our content library accessed by hundreds of users daily, we enable best-in-class content-to-learner matching and surface accurate, honest results. 

What’s more, we listen to learners. Recently, 87% of L&D professionals said they want the content they consume to be created by a subject matter expert. The survey concluded that “respondents are not opposed to L&D practitioners using AI technology to improve their efforts, but they still want humans to create, plan, and direct the activities.”  

Accordingly, we firmly believe AI should complement, not supersede, human creativity. AI is great at analyzing data and recognizing patterns. However, it lacks the nuance and emotional intelligence that only human judgement offers. Think of Go1 AI as your ally, picking up the slack when you want it to, and leaving you to focus on your strengths. Human judgement should always come first – Go1 AI is here to help.   

Finally, this is only the start! Over the coming months, we’ll have more exciting announcements as we continue to improve and refine Go1 AI. Keep an eye out for more to come.
