Camp AI: an AI Camp Experience
About this Event
🏕️ Welcome to Camp AI
Skip the conference. Come to camp.
Camp AI is an immersive, hands-on AI experience where curious humans come together to learn, build, and play with artificial intelligence.
Designed for people who are ready to move beyond basic AI use, Camp AI brings together AI practitioners, builders, creatives, and strategists for a full day of practical learning, experimentation, and connection.
No hours of sitting through boring presentations.
Instead, you'll choose your own learning trail from 12+ workshops, explore today's leading AI tools, build alongside experts, experiment in our AI Playground, and leave with practical skills you can put to work immediately.
🛠️ What You'll Experience
✨ 12+ workshops to choose from — build a day around what you want to learn
🧰 The Tool Shed — meet the tools and find your AI stack through rapid deep dives
🏗️ Build Labs — go beyond prompting with hands-on sessions covering agents, automation, AI strategy, vibe coding, content creation, and more
🎮 AI Playground — experiment, troubleshoot, build, and play alongside Camp Counselors and fellow campers
📿 AI Accountability Friendship Bracelets — make a new friend and a commitment to keep building after camp
🎖️ Camp Activations — collect merit badges and experience a few nostalgic camp surprises along the way
🔥 Camp Eats + Treats — because what's camp without the snacks?
🤝 Real Connection — meet curious humans who are learning, experimenting, and figuring out what's next right alongside you
