[Seminar] How will design change from the use of AI to copyright? "Fashion designers in the AI era - How will AI change fashion design?" is now accepting entries!
OpenFashion Co., Ltd. is working on developing services and products that combine fashion with the latest technology, including AI. In August, we began offering the beta version of the generative AI utilization support tool "Maison AI," promoting the introduction of generative AI into companies mainly in the fashion industry to improve operational efficiency and break through new ideas. I've been doing it.
The seminar "Fashion Designers in the AI Era - How Will AI Change Fashion Design?" will be held free online and offline from 6pm on Tuesday, November 7th. The theme is "Fashion Designers in the AI Era" and OpenFashion Company representative Ueda took the stage. I've heard of generative AI services such as "ChatGPT" and "Midjourney" but I don't know how to use them.What is the current state of copyright in Japan for AI-based products? I will also answer any questions you may have. Furthermore, we plan to conduct a demonstration of design production using generative AI tools.
