YVR AI #2 - Picking the right (AI) tool for the job + AI image generation
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 peer learning community with a goal of providing practical insights, real-world applications, and genuine community connection. This is where you come to learn, connect, and build, without the fuss.
What We'll Do:
Knowledge exchange: Learn from people who use AI on a daily basis, shortcuts and best practices to take AI beyond just a glorified search engine.
Show and tell: Bring your vibe code projects and show us what you've built.
In-Depth Q&A: Your chance to ask the tough questions and get real answers from an industry expert or power user.
Community Networking: Meet and connect with fellow founders, developers, marketers, and AI enthusiasts from your local community. No pressure, just good conversation.
