Still, I think AI remains a tool and you need to know how to use it in your preparations. No matter how much you want it, AI will not prepare a quality event for you. And even the best description and photos will not provide you with such a “user experience” that you can imagine the event in a real space. It may give you great ideas and suggestions, make corrections, but it will not replace experience.
What has AI taken to a completely different level?
Visualization.
I no longer need hours of graphic design work to create a simple preview of a space. The representation of ideas is available to those for whom Illustrator is a Spanish village based on well-written prompts.
Just because you can write a good prompt does not mean you have mastered the principles of graphic design! AI can mess up graphics quite a bit.
Examples include errors in texts, scales and perspectives and often humorously distorted logos.
Classic moodboards are disappearing and are being replaced by more accurate visualizations. This helps clients better understand the intended result when presenting a design. The illustrated vision is also more understandable to suppliers. They understand better what I require of them and it is easier for us to compile the final price for delivery.
Is an event manager still needed?
AI has its limits and human intervention is still needed in many areas. In what ways can it not replace us?
- Budget: artificial intelligence will create a budget for you, but it can be far from reality and the experience of an event manager.
- Contacts: AI does not know your suppliers. And certainly not the verified ones.
- Production: AI will not turn visualizations into reality and will not replace personal contact and the need to resolve any resulting fuck-ups on site.
