Interactive Workshop: The Power of AI + Voice

Natasha Murashev

This is an interactive workshop challenge where you will be building a Voice Memos app with AI-powered search, transcription, summaries, and more. We will meet on Friday for a pre-building session where the conceptual ideas required for the app will be discussed. You will then be provided with a detailed step-by-step guide on how to build the app, including all the resources needed. You will then spend the week(end) building the app - any questions or obstacles you encounter can be posted in the workshop Slack channel, where you will be given support by the course instructors and fellow peers. This workshop is in collaboration with Vatsal Manot.

FAQ - try! Swift World

What is the format of try! Swift World?

try! Swift World is a series of ongoing workshops - new workshops posted weekly. Each workshop is limited to a group of 10 participants to keep it small and private. Think of it as getting personal time with a top Swift developer. The workshops last up to 2 hours and include about an hour of interactive content (prepare to get hands on and code along!), and the rest of the time is used for questions, casual discussion, networking.

How can my organization get involved?

try! Swift is a community conference, and we really need everyone's help to make it happen! The easiest way to get involved is by attending. If you're a manager, we ask that you encourage your team to attend workshops and give them the time to do so.

We are also looking for sponsors. If you’d like more information, please contact us at [email protected].

Why is there a fee for the workshops?

The workshops are run by very busy professional Swift developers from around the world. They are taking time out of their schedule to provide a personal workshop for you and answer all of your questions. The workshop fee goes toward paying instructors for their time and to support try! Swift in continuing to organize workshops in a sustainable way moving forward.
