About this Event
Join the Western Sydney Tech Innovators - Community AI Lab, a dynamic program designed to foster AI literacy and tech innovation in our local community.
This program is tailored to curious minds who want to explore, experiment and understand how they can benefit from AI technologies as well as those who want to create with these technologies. Through practical projects and top-quality, on-demand learning materials, community members will gain:
- Practical skills and in-depth understanding using AI tools to solve real-world problems or create new possibilities.
- In-depth understanding of how AI will impact your industry, business and personal career via hands-on exploration and creation.
The lab offers two ways to participate:
- Drop-in activities for exploration: Join us for short, hands-on sessions where you can explore topics like AI Deepfakes detection or AI video creation.
- Dedicated projects for learning-by-creating: Engage in ongoing projects across various tracks, for example:
a. AI Art Track, e.g., create cinematic videos with AI
b. AI App Creation Track, e.g., create education apps with AI
c. AI Work/Business Automation Track, e.g., streamline social media with AI
Important Note: For project work, please bring your own laptop. However, no laptop is required for drop-in activities as the Lab will provide demo equipment.
Both options allow you to learn and experiment with AI at your own pace. Participants' benefits include:
- Access and play with cutting-edge AI tools and technologies without paying expensive subscriptions yourself
- Networking and building friendships with like-minded fellow Western Sydney community members
- Skill development through diverse projects in art, business, and engineering
- Opportunity to contribute to solving local community challenges
Our unique approach emphasizes:
- Interest-driven projects tailored to your background and skill level
- Flexibility to join drop-in activities or commit to longer projects
- Flexibility to work on projects in and out of lab sessions
- Collaborative teamwork with fellow community members
- Regular showcases to share project progress and outcomes
Together, we'll improve AI literacy in Western Sydney and drive local innovation through emerging technologies. Don't miss this chance to shape our local community's digital future!
