Image Generation using AI

Immerse yourself in the captivating realm of AI-generated images. Discover how AI algorithms have evolved to create stunning visuals, from simplistic sketches to awe-inspiring art pieces. Get introduced to the technologies that make this magic happen, including open-source solutions like Stable Diffusion, and state-of-the-art creative tools like Midjourney and Adobe Firefly.

You will also learn how to guide AI in painting, designing, and creating visuals through effective instructions. Moreover, we'll explore the ethical dimensions of generative AI, discussing issues around bias and representation. Finally, get a glimpse of what the future holds—AI coming to life through animation and sound!

In this workshop we will be using ClipDrop, a simple web-based app, and DreamStudio, a more advanced tool that requires a free account.
