Abstract: 

Generative AI has revolutionized various domains, including art, music, and storytelling. In this beginner-friendly session, we will embark on a journey through the Generative AI landscape, understanding its fundamental concepts, techniques, and applications. We will explore popular generative models, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), LLMs, etc. and their role in generating realistic and creative outputs. Participants will have the opportunity to dive into hands-on activities, where they will train and deploy a generative model to generate unique pieces of art and text. By the end of this session, beginners will have a solid grasp of Generative AI, empowering them to explore its endless possibilities.

Learning Objectives:
+ Gain a comprehensive understanding of Generative AI and its significance in various domains.
+ Explore popular generative models, such as GANs, LLMs and their architectures.
+ Engage in hands-on activities to create unique pieces of art using generative models.
+ Discover advanced techniques for enhancing generative models, including conditional generation, text-to-image generation, and style transfer.
+ Discuss ethical considerations and challenges associated with generative AI, including bias, fairness, and responsible AI practices.
+ Have the opportunity to ask questions and receive clarifications during the Q&A session.
By the end of the session, attendees will have a solid grasp of Generative AI, enabling them to explore its applications and unleash their creativity in their own projects.

We will leverage the python stack with libraries such as TensorFlow/PyTorch, huggingface and more

Background Knowledge:
