YVR AI - Knowing your (AI) Tools | Burnaby & Tricities
Details
Please note the change in event TIME and LOCATION. We're meeting on THURSDAY instead of WEDNESDAY.
As space is limited, we need you to confirm on Luma for the second event.
AI never sleeps and every day we hear a different platform rising up to take the top spot. We started with ChatGPT and now we have many other platforms. The question is how do we know which one is better for which tasks?
Our second event will be a chance to look at the strengths of each platform and different functions such as image generation, conducting research or using AI for your business branding/sales.
YVR AI is a no-frills, high-value meetup focused on practical insights, real-world applications, and genuine community connection. This is where you come to learn, connect, and build, without the fuss.
