Explaining AI Capabilities Through Clear, Human-Centered Learning

The Context

An internal AI taskforce needed a clear, accessible way to explain new AI capabilities to a non-technical audience — without overwhelming or oversimplifying the message.

The Challenge

Complex concepts risk confusion and resistance when they aren’t introduced with the right structure. The team needed a shared learning asset that aligned understanding across stakeholders and could be reused over time.

The Approach

The solution centered on human-centered learning design, starting with how people process unfamiliar concepts.

Arc & Slate focused on:

  • Clarifying the core message before selecting a format

  • Structuring information as a clear narrative rather than a technical explanation

  • Using video as a storytelling tool to support understanding

  • Grounding abstract ideas in practical, real-world context

The Outcome

The final video gave teams a consistent reference point for understanding AI capabilities, improving clarity and alignment across conversations and use cases.

this approach applies to any learning challenge

This approach applies to any learning need that involves complexity or change:

  • Translating unfamiliar concepts into clear learning

  • Designing narratives that support understanding

  • Creating reusable learning assets that scale
