Join Dallas Market Center at the ArchLIGHT Summit for the CEU “AI as a Lighting Designer’s Assistant: Practical Tools for Analysis, Comparison, and Clarity”.
AI is already showing up in the lighting industry—sometimes in places designers don’t even see—so this session takes a practical, no-hype look at how lighting designers can use AI as an assistant rather than a threat. Instead of focusing on futuristic promises, this talk centers on real-world design tasks and the importance of asking the right questions, exploring how thoughtful prompts and well-defined inputs allow AI to support analysis, comparison, and documentation while keeping design authorship firmly in human hands.
Through candid examples and lessons learned, the session highlights where AI actually helps (and where it absolutely doesn’t), offering a grounded, approachable conversation about using these tools strategically to save time, reduce friction, and stay in control as the profession evolves.
Members get free access with VIP code "TXOKI26".
This course is available for 1.0 CEU credit and AIA #ALS2601.
