AI prototyping tools are everywhere. But which ones are actually worth your time?
In this hands-on session, we'll split into small groups and tackle the same design challenge using different AI tools. Same brief, different outputs. At the end, each group shares what they built and what surprised them.
No experience required. Beginners and veterans both bring something valuable to the table, and the side-by-side comparison tends to spark the best conversations.
Come ready to build, experiment, and leave with some honest opinions. Bringing your laptop is recommended.
