Meet Our Presenter

Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have exploded over the last few years. They can supercharge your web searches and help you find the most relevant information; generate images and videos from text prompts; summarize web pages, YouTube videos, and PDF files; help you accomplish tasks in your programs; assist with creative writing; and more. Chris Taylor, President of the Ottawa PC Users’ Group, will show you how easily it can be done and how to avoid dreaded “AI hallucinations.” And you can do it all for free.

Chris Taylor worked for the Canadian Federal Government for over 36 years
in user and server support, IT architecture, and IT security. He has been active in
community user groups for over 45 years. Chris has given over 550 presentations at the Ottawa Public Library on many computer and camera-related topics. He has presented 19 times to APCUG groups.
