Next Gen AI Design Methods and Techniques: Crafting Stories that Feel Deeply Human
Event description
A free 60-minute webinar
Join GenAI Lab for an inspiring 60-minute session co-led by Greg Aper and Kristin de la Fuente, where we explore how GenAI can amplify human depth, not just automate outputs.
In this session, we’ll show how storytelling lies at the heart of inclusive, resonant AI experiences. Rather than positioning diversity as a checkbox or an afterthought, we’ll demonstrate how designing deeper, more dimensional human stories—with the help of GenAI—naturally leads to more inclusive, representative, and meaningful outcomes.
Ultimately, this is about reimagining GenAI as a collaborator —one that reflects diverse realities, amplifies underrepresented voices, and helps build a future where responsible technology works for everyone.
Inclusive design partnering (LIVE DEMO)
- From analysing language and visuals for underlying bias to offering best-practice recommendations and uplifting your designs with fairness and empathy, Kristin shows you how you can partner with GenAI to become more aware and to design more responsibly.
AI enhanced storytelling workflow (LIVE DEMO)
- From crafting inclusive and diverse persona creation across gender and ethnicity, custom styles for individual personas to generating imagery of people & scenes that feel authentic and have artistic media realism aesthetics. Greg shows you how to design narratives that resonate and represent from an idea through to hi-fidelity wireframes.
What you'll learn
• How to co-create with AI in ways that deepen the emotional and cultural richness of your work
• Why storytelling is a key driver of inclusive design—and how to embed it in your GenAI workflows.
• How to move from representation as a goal to representation as a byproduct of ethical narrative design
What you'll take away
• Prompts, techniques, and visual styles you can use to create more resonant personas, interfaces, and narratives
• Tools for using GenAI as a co-pilot in storytelling, strategy, and ethical decision-making
Tools we will cover

Who Should Attend?
- Designers, researchers, product folks, marketers and creators curious about using GenAI to tell deeper stories. Whether you're just beginning or already hands-on, this session will give you new creative tools and a fresh lens on what human-centered AI can look like in action.
