Quotes from Gemini Champions:
“Used it to find out how to do things in a variety of software applications, Gemini helped to gather information quickly for preparing how to guides for staff. Lots of research on subjects, technology and asking questions”
“Help brainstorm – it can be particularly useful to help kick start thinking or check your knowledge before starting a task, it can (think) of things that you wouldn’t have thought of at the beginning“
