AI is everywhere – but how can it actually help you? Beyond the usual “I ask ChatGPT to ____” examples, this interactive evening session at Baked Café will showcase some of the most surprising and practical things AI can already do.
Watch as AI generates:+ A fully interactive 3D model of our Solar System+ A beautifully designed website in real-time+ A platforming game (think Super Mario) – created on the spot.
With audience participation (optional, of course), we can refine these creations or make them completely wild…it’s up to you! Plus, we’ll explore lesser-known AI tools that can take your creativity and productivity to the next level.

Time: 6:00 – 8:00pm
Doors open at 5:30
Come for a fun, hands-on night of AI exploration and discovery. Whether you’re an AI skeptic or enthusiast, you’ll leave with fresh ideas on how to make AI work for you.
