Imagine AI Live 25: Revolutionizing Conference Planning with AI

Steve Metcalf, Founder and CEO of Imagine AI Live, reveals groundbreaking plans for their upcoming AI-focused conference. With AI at the helm of website design and development, Imagine AI Live is setting a new standard for tech events, showcasing the power of AI in real-time application.

As the world of artificial intelligence continues to evolve at breakneck speed, one conference is leading the charge in demonstrating the practical applications of AI in event planning and execution. Imagine AI Live, the brainchild of Steve Metcalf, is not just talking about AI – they're living it.

The Future of Conferences is AI-Driven

In a recent conversation with Zara, a founding member of Imagine AI Live, Steve Metcalf shared exciting updates about their upcoming event, Imagine AI Live 25, scheduled for May 28-30. This isn't just another tech conference; it's a testament to the power of AI in action.

  • AI-Native Website: The team is completely overhauling their website, creating an AI-native platform that showcases the capabilities of current AI technologies.
  • No-Code Revolution: Leveraging AI tools, the entire website is being built without traditional coding, demonstrating the accessibility of AI to non-developers.
  • Streamlined Process: By using AI, Imagine AI Live is collapsing the traditional steps of website development, from design to implementation.

Eating Their Own Dog Food

Metcalf emphasizes the importance of "eating their own dog food" – a tech industry term for using one's own products. For Imagine AI Live, this means employing AI at every step of the conference planning and execution process.

  • Rapid Feature Implementation: Need a new website feature? With AI tools like Cursor, it's as simple as describing what you want.
  • Content Management: The integration of Sanity CMS is being handled through AI-driven processes, showcasing the versatility of these tools.
  • Design without Designers: The AI-driven approach eliminates the need for expensive design teams, democratizing the creation process.

Looking Ahead to May

While May 2024 might seem distant, Metcalf is already anticipating the leaps in AI technology that will occur between now and then. The conference, expected to draw close to 1,000 attendees from various stages of their AI journey, will be a living showcase of these advancements.

Conclusion

Imagine AI Live 25 is set to be more than just a conference – it's a real-time demonstration of AI's capabilities in event planning and execution. By fully embracing AI in their own processes, Metcalf and his team are not just talking about the future of AI; they're actively building it.

Key Takeaways

"We're completely ripping out the guts of our old website and replacing it with an AI native website... It's really amazing what we can accomplish now, really without having to hire a dev team, without the expense of an expensive design team."

"We as an AI Native conference, Imagine AI Live, we want to be eating our dog food at every step of the way."
