Everyone's talking about AI. Almost no one understands it.
Ninety minutes, in plain English. What AI does, what’s worth worrying about, what isn’t, and how to tell a fake image from a real one. (You’ll vote on that before I show you the answer.)
Bring your questions and I’ll answer them live.

The tools I use to make these
My old light board only worked with the room lights off. The Cutterpillar one is bright enough to see through with them on.
Cutterpillar Glow Premium II
Cordless, with about 4 hours of battery and a 13 x 19 inch surface, which fits a fat quarter or a full block.
Oliso M3Pro Project Iron
The small iron I keep next to the machine for fusing Lite Steam-a-Seam 2 pieces down.
I’m a Cutterpillar and Oliso affiliate. If you buy through these links, I earn a commission, and it doesn’t cost you anything extra.
Three ways to learn from me
For your guild or library
Lectures and workshops, in person or over Zoom, for audiences with no technical background.
“We had 212 registrants and 156 attendees. We will certainly keep you in mind for future programs and enthusiastically recommend you to others.”
Bari E., Wheaton Public Library, Wheaton, Illinois
“It was the single most informational overview of AI I have had in quite some time.”
Donna C.
“I am one of those people whose mind was closed to AI. You have opened my mind and now I am excited to dig in. I am 77 years old and not afraid of the computer.”
Susan S.
Who am I?
I’m Theresa Benson. I have an electrical engineering background, I wrote Digital Muse: Bringing AI into your Creative Process, and I teach quilters what AI tools do well, what they get wrong, and where they don’t belong.
