SUMMARY:Co-creAIt\, an unconference about human/AI collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Co-creAIt is an unconference about Humans and Generative AI collaborating at work. The event is for brand-side digital leaders\, agencies\, consultants\, developers\, and other creative professionals. The event is presented by the Digital Strategy Exchange.\n\nAs an unconference\, there are no speakers or panelists (you’ve probably heard a lot from several AI experts already). INSTEAD\, each attendee is an equal participant in the various topic discussions\, which the attendees decide on together at the start of the event.  It’s the most interactive and collaborative event type.\n\nNOTE: Each attendee will get a box lunch at the event.\n\n\nTESTIMONIAL from Co-creAIt 2025 attendee:\n\n"Having never attended an “unconference” before\, Co-CreAIt was a breath of fresh air. It brought together a mix of AI-curious folks—technologists\, filmmakers\, and business leaders across a wide range of industries and skill levels. Everyone felt genuinely welcome. The format felt laid-back and fluid\, unlike a typically rigid event. I met some really interesting people and left inspired. It’s exciting to see a community like this starting to take shape in Portland. Looking forward to the next one!"\n\nGarett Stenson\, Founder & Head of Strategy\, db clay\, Founder\, MIXED* AI film festival\n\n\nYou’ve put in the time to learn and use some GenAI tools. Now’s the time to gather with your peers in these essential discussions about the pros & cons of humans and GenAI working together\, best practices\, etc.\n\n\nEVENT PRODUCER\n\nThis is the 2nd Co-creAIt event produced by Steve Gehlen & co-produced by Al Partridge. Steve is the past producer of Cre8con\, the Portland Creative Conference (2008-2019)\, the Cre8Camp unconference services\, Inverge: the interactive convergence conference\, the Internet Strategy Forum Summit\, and founder of the Digital Strategy Exchange\, a new professional development network for brand-side/in-house digital leaders.\n\n\nPRESENTED BY: Digital Strategy Exchange\, a new professional development network for brand-side/in-house digital leaders or individual consultants with 10+ years of brand-side experience.\n\nFor information about how to join the Digital Strategy Exchange\, visit https://digitalstrategyexchange.com\nTags: AI\, networking\, unconference\, collaboration\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482492
