We’ll discuss the limitations and impact of generative image AI. We’ll explain how the underlying technology of state-of-the art models like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion work, how it can be used in combination with other technologies like LLMs and how they can be adapted to specific use-cases. Generative image AI has made significant progress in recent years. Models like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion can generate high-quality images from textual descriptions or from a given input image. This opens a wide range of possibilities for creative and practical applications. However, these models also have limitations and ethical implications that need to be considered. Whether you are a developer, designer, product manager or business leader, this session will provide you with a better understanding of the current state of generative image AI and how it can be used to create new realities.

Testimonials

I liked the knowledgeable comparison of the various technologies, including when to use or not to use each. Very clear and objective. His information is based on real experience using the technologies.

I want to thank Markus for his graciousness and willingness to share his knowledge for so long. I’ll probably never throw away his Object Oriented book even though I no longer do much but maintain records in the applications I wrote. His teaching on C# and his State of .NET have been always rich and valuable. He is one of a kind.
