Vancouver's AI Revolution

Events, Meetups, and Ways to Get Plugged In

Alright, listen up… something big is brewing here in Vancouver, and I want to make sure you're in the know. December is shaping up to be a landmark month for AI in our city, with a flurry of must-attend events and meetups that are going to shake things up.

First, we've got the Dialogue on Technology (DoT) project summit happening December 4-5 at the Wosk Centre. This is a rare opportunity to get in the trenches and shape the future of AI adoption and education across British Columbia.

MetaCreation Lab and Lionel Ringenbach and I have have developed something we're excited to share at DoT called the AutoLoom Cybernetic Post-Photography Portraiture Project.

Now, I know what you're thinking - "Kris, what the hell is that?" Well, let me tell you. This is a generative adversarial network that's about to redefine the way we think about portraiture and creativity. We're talking machines and humans co-creating portraits that challenge our very notions of identity. It's raw, it's unfiltered, and it's going to make you question everything.

But that's just the warm-up. The main event is our renegade NeurIPS 2024 Vancouver AI Community Meetup on December 14th at the HR MacMillan Space Centre. While the rest of the world is busy clawing their way through the conference treadmill, we're throwing the kind of party that'll make them green with envy.

This is your chance to step off the beaten path and plug into the real heartbeat of Vancouver's AI scene. We've curated a lineup of innovators, artists, and boundary-pushers who are using AI in ways that'll blow your mind.

From a futuristic digital avatar musician who's teleporting to us from the year 4044, to a philosophical exploration of the reciprocal relationship between AI and humans, this is where the magic happens.

shhhh The next AI Meetup also my birthday, so you know we're going all out. Throw in some immersive visuals, a killer afterparty, and the chance to rub elbows with Vancouver's AI elite, and you've got an evening that's guaranteed to leave a lasting impression.

Tickets are live now, but the earlyworm is about to expire. So if you want in on the action, I'd suggest snatching them up before it's too late.

Are you ready to see the future of AI unfold right here in Vancouver? Then let's do this. Got ideas or want to get your hands dirty? Hit me up - I'm all ears.
