Want to learn more about generative AI? Welcome to Dazed & Diffused!

Join us for the 16th event in our series of meet-ups aimed at bringing together the generative AI community in Australia, in person. The last event in Melbourne was a great success, with over 130 people coming together to share ideas and what they're working on.

Our objective is to create a platform open to all for collaboration, inspiration, and connection for the creative community, AI builders, and enthusiasts.

Experience an evening filled with talks, music, drinks, and a rapid-fire showcase of new generative AI ideas, apps and art. Connect with other AI community members and have a hand in shaping the future of this rapidly evolving space.

We will have three guest speakers, the first to be announced is:

• Anthony Wymond - Founder and Creative Director of IGNITE®. Anthony will be showcasing how he is using OpenClaw in his agency. With over two decades of experience, he has delivered digital products and campaigns for iconic Australian schools and international brands. In addition to leading IGNITE®, Anthony launched BestSchools.com.au—a unified school discovery and marketing‑automation platform—and StandupTimer.app, a free tool that helps teams run more efficient meetings.
• David Finnegan - David is a Creative Director and founder of Sense 6, with over 30 years in the creative industry. For the launch of Neet, Sense 6 was brought in to produce four 15-second commercials using Gen AI. David will talk through his process for creating the ads and show the outcomes.
• Marta James is a digital transformation and product leader with 15 years of experience driving innovation across automotive, retail, and SaaS — including Toyota, Whispir, and Adore Beauty. Most recently as Chief Technology & Product Officer at Humbli, she led the company's AI capability strategy.
