This course explores how artificial intelligence makes it easier to develop and share ideas. You learn how to refine a concept with AI tools, create simple prototypes, and produce visuals that make an idea clear and compelling. We also look at how to set up a basic website or marketing plan in minutes. Along the way we walk through one live example, from rough idea to “ready to share.” No coding or design experience is required. This session is for anyone curious about how ideas become real, and how AI can reduce the barriers to getting started.
