AI Workflow 101 : Build Your First AI Workflow

Welcome to AI Workflow 101 Vancouver! 👋 Join us for an evening with fellow students, professionals, creators, small business owners, and AI-curious people here in beautiful Downtown Vancouver. Whether you’ve already been using ChatGPT, Claude, or other AI tools — or you’re just getting started and wondering how AI can actually help in your daily work — you’re welcome here. This meetup is designed for beginners. No coding background is required. Instead of focusing on complex AI theories, model architecture, or technical jargon, we’ll explore one practical question: How can ordinary people turn everyday tasks into simple, repeatable AI workflows? You’ll learn how to use AI to organize messy information, summarize documents, generate content, analyze images, create task lists, and build your first practical AI-assisted workflow. ⏰ Please arrive 15–30 minutes early — we’ll start on time, and arriving early will give you time to check in, grab a seat, and meet other attendees.
