Call for Participation: Workshop on Out-of-Domain Creation with Generative AI
We invite researchers and practitioners working with Generative AI (GenAI) to submit proposals for 20-minute presentations, demonstrations and artefact displays for our upcoming workshop, jointly hosted by the University of Queensland (UQ) and the University of Exeter. The workshop aims to explore methods for scaffolding the process of out-of-domain creation using GenAI (i.e.OpenAI ChatGPT and DALLE 3, Microsoft CoPilot, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, Stable Diffusion and Midjourney), enabling individuals to create artefacts in unfamiliar domains with little or no prior experience or formal training. The workshop seeks to foster collaboration among Human-Centred Computing researchers, GenAI algorithm researchers, and current GenAI practitioners. The workshop is funded by the QUEX Institute Workshop Grant Scheme. We encourage submissions that showcase cross-domain use of GenAI such as: 1. Image generation tools like Stable Diffusion, DALL-E or Midjourney to create artwork, illustrations, or designs without being a trained artist or graphic designer. 2. Code generation tools like GitHub Copilot or CHatGPT to create software (including websites and games), scripts, or algorithms without being a programmer or having extensive coding experience. 3. Language models like GPT-3 or ChatGPT to generate written content, such as articles, stories, or poetry, without being a professional writer or having a background in literature. 4. Audio generation tools like Jukebox, Magenta or Suno to create music, soundscapes, or audio effects without being a musician or sound engineer. 5. Video generation tools like RunwayML to create animations, video content, or visual effects without being a videographer or animator. 6. Modeling tools to create 3D models, sculptures, or architectural designs without being a 3D artist or architect. We are open to submissions that demonstrate the use of GenAI in other creative domains not listed above, as well as innovative applications of GenAI that bridge multiple domains or disciplines. The workshop will take place on Wednesday, 29 May, starting at 1 pm AEST at the UQ St Lucia campus. It will feature a joint location hybrid panel before transitioning to the Exeter venue. Both locations will host keynote speakers and the event will also be livestreamed. The agenda is structured such that half the events and schedule will come from UQ in the afternoon, transitioning smoothly to Exeter in their morning, thereby fostering a cohesive cross-continental collaboration. A distinctive element of the workshop is a dedicated crossover time, to facilitate a hybrid collaborative discussion among the participants from both universities.
