Gen AI is most powerful when you actually use it. This hands-on workshop is designed to move past demos and buzzwords and start building. Over the course of the workshop, participants will spend roughly an hour on each topic actively creating tools, experimenting with workflows, and applying generative AI to their own work. You will leave with concrete assets you can keep using, not just ideas. The workshop is led by Drake University professors Chris Porter and Chris Snider. You can attend in-person at Drake or virtually on Zoom.
