Prototyping AI Apps with Play Workshop-Part 2
Join us for a hands-on virtual workshop where you’ll learn how to use Play to design and prototype functional AI iOS apps — especially those powered by large language models (LLMs).
In this session, we’ll explore Play’s AI capabilities, walk through real use cases, and guide you step-by-step as you build your own chat-based AI experience. Whether you’re a designer, founder, or technologist, you’ll leave with a working prototype and a new way to bring your AI ideas to life — all from your laptop.
💻 Note: This is an interactive, follow-along session. Please have your laptop ready.
