Artificial intelligence is an unprecedented technology that defies our conventional methods of comprehension. Grasping the potential of Ai-driven design is fueled by emotional intelligence, curiosity, and a willingness to suspend what you think you know.

Professor Quintin Williams and Greg Aper don't have all the answers. For them, that's part of the appeal of Ai. The opportunity to explore the unknown, to try things that haven't been tried before. What they do have is the accumulated knowledge gained from thousands of hours spent testing, failing, retrying, succeeding, teaching, and training others how to use Ai to turbocharge their innate creative talents.

They have discovered by doing, and what they've experienced is that the realities of using Ai for design are much different than the perceptions. They welcome you to join them as they relate the challenges of helping both design students and professionals acclimate to Ai and share their passion for what's possible with Ai. (Spoiler: Anything is possible.)
