We’re using three different AIs in a action-packed session with young teens today. Otter.ai is recording thoughts about problems and the link takes you to an unedited transcript. Meta.ai is taking photos with Ray-Ban smart glasses and you can see some of those photos inside the Meta View album on Flickr. We also use a free image creator with our Microsoft subscription. It’s Bing Image Creator producing images from strings of text when students use their Edge browser or when they use the Bing app on their phones.
Bernard Goldbach and others discuss various topics related to technology and its applications in everyday life. They explore the idea of a gym machine that counts reps, and how to document problems and ideas. The group talks about using a device to record and share thoughts, with examples like scooters and student accommodation apps. Bernard emphasizes the importance of capturing ideas and converting them into images or videos. The conversation also touches on the potential for a traditional artist to create visual representations of these ideas, highlighting the integration of technology with creative processes.
Otter says our action items include sharing short statements from ideas and then making images about those statements.
Problem in the Gym
Otter says, “Bernard Goldbach initiates the conversation by asking about the problem related to counting reps in the gym.”
Problems with e-Scooters
Otter suggested there are some thoughts about e-scooters. Caoimhe shared some of those ideas.
Idea using an app to help find accommodation for students
Eva shared an idea for an app that helps find student accommodation.
We will use some of the text clips from Otter to create images using traditional methods. And we will open an Edge browser to use Bing Image Creator while producing images from text. An email is required to produce the images.
I’m following up these workshop thoughts by writing about them on LinkedIn. Some of the images will be snapped by Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses during our workshops or by the Osmo Pocket 3 camera over the shoulder of the image creators. We plan to share traditional and digital samples of work inside Flickr’s Digital Transformation Group.
