24.11.24 - Tokyo Metropolitan Government x MetAI to Hold Workshop for Children at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation: "Let's Draw the 'Future Tokyo' with Generative AI!"

Let's Create "The Future of Tokyo" with Generative AI!

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is promoting the "Tokyo Bay eSG Project," which aims to create a sustainable urban model for the future using the Bay Area as its stage.
To accelerate the project, a hub where many people—including children—can experience cutting-edge technology is scheduled to have its grand opening at the end of November.

As part of this initiative to think together about Tokyo's future, we will hold a workshop where participants use generative AI, a technology drawing worldwide attention, to create image visualizations of the future Tokyo.​
Let's express the future Tokyo born from children's free imagination and free words.

In this workshop, using the image generation AI "Midjourney," we won't just generate AI images—we'll also teach the rules for entering prompts (the text input required for image generation), how to effectively construct words, and even the secrets of AI utilization that no one else will teach you.
This will undoubtedly become a powerful tool for future learning and creative activities!

Why not join us in creating a future Tokyo filled with your own excitement? We look forward to your participation!
