Rasmussen RoomAI isn’t just for coders or corporations—it’s rapidly reshaping how artists, writers, entrepreneurs, and everyday makers bring ideas to life. In this dynamic, hands-on session, author and artist Theresa Benson (aka The AI Quilter) pulls back the curtain on the creative side of artificial intelligence. Get an inside look at how tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and Canva actually work, with live demos that decode what’s happening behind the screen. Along the way, you learn:
- How to craft better prompts (and why AI gets weird without them)
- What different platforms are great at—and where they fall short
- What’s next in the AI space, from instant video to voice cloning
- And how creatives are using these tools to enhance—not replace—their work
Whether you're tech-curious or already experimenting with AI, you walk away with practical tips, big ideas, and a clear understanding of how to explore these tools on your own—ethically and creatively.
