This workshop is crafted for designers, PMs, and researchers looking to move beyond the hype and build useful AI. You’ll leave with new tools, new perspectives, and a clearer path to creating AI that actually works - for users, for teams, and for the world.
07.08.2025 18:10 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Nearly 90% of AI projects fail because the traditional innovation methods that worked for mobile apps or web platforms don’t translate well to AI. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We'll lead you through practical techniques to connect the right AI tech to the right user need.
