WHAT WE
VALUE
The AI Salon is a community of artists, technologists, and advocates shaping AI through creative conversation.
Curiosity
We are eager to ask the obvious questions, learn new things, and experiment, experiment, experiment. Our relentless quest for adventure and exploration ignites our inner spark, transforming our curiosity into unexpected discoveries and newfound passions.
Playfulness
We value creativity, joy, and the freedom to experiment. We Play First and transform learning into a captivating journey. We collaborate and Mindfully Create together when we can, to learn more, make friends and develop new circles of trust. Remember, “All work and no play” is how we did things before the Salon!
Empathy
We are respectful, inclusive, and kind. We value diverse perspectives, recognizing that our differences make us stronger. We accept that people might be afraid and angry and we work to understand them. We actively practice gratitude and acknowledge the efforts and successes of those around us. Humans matter.
Generosity
We are willing to share our resources, feedback, and wisdom with others, and support each other’s growth & development. There is so much happening, and so much to learn, we can’t possibly keep up with it all. Understand that even if something is obvious to you, it might be a profound revelation to someone else. Learn out loud. Share what you know. Generously Lead!
Create Excellence
It is no longer enough to dabble in AI. As models get better for everyone, the only ones who rise are those who dare to create at a higher ideal. Create Excellence is the everyday practice of pursuing an idea, setting your own standard, and holding that point of view as you guide the tools to meet it. Be brave enough to make something you’re excited to share. Then launch it, not for the applause, but for the unshakable joy of sharing something that is true to you.
