Hype is grounded in history. Whether you fear AI will replace you or believe it could radically empower you, this workshop is a rare combination of both the history of 70 years (!) of AI development and a hands-on application for how it can be used today to empower today's digital product builders.
This workshop combines theory and practice in a beginner-friendly primer to catch you up on all the AI topics you've heard about and are afraid to ask.
By attending this workshop, you will walk away with:
- A clear understanding of how AI evolved across 3 "AI summers" and 2 "AI winters", and how that history shows up in today's modern tools (machine learning, gen AI, LLMs, etc)
- A practical, guided walkthrough of AI prototyping, with the tools, workflows, and resources to vibe-code your own app during and after the workshop
- Forward-looking critical context for how AI impacts the future of work/cognitive development (aka brain rot)
Whether you are AI-curious, AI-skeptical, or are just AI-overwhelmed, this workshop will catch you up to the challenges, dangers, and rewards of building the future with AI and contextualize what all the hype is about.
