**Re-imagining Art with AI** is designed to ignite interest in the intersection of AI and art, and subsequently delve into various art styles and the speaker's personal projects.

Participants will acquire knowledge about cutting-edge AI systems such as Midjourney, Dall-E, Stable Diffusion, and more, as well as their practical applications. These advanced tools provide excellent ideation support, enabling participants to quickly generate variations that are tailored to specific goals and within their control. This process will entail a considerable amount of learning and unlearning. With every technological evolution, non-fitting tools will become obsolete, but hands-on skills are timeless. Participants will learn to leverage this
fusion to their advantage.

Towards the end of the session, a 30-minute Q&A will provide an opportunity for one-on-one interactions, where participants can gain insights from the speaker's industry experience.
