AI Future Creators: Empowering the Next Generation of Digital Innovators

A Scandic Vibes Network CIC Initiative: AI Future Creators

At Scandic Vibes Network CIC, we are driven by a belief that every young person in Leeds deserves the chance to shape the future. We are incredibly proud to launch our groundbreaking initiative: AI Future Creators. This groundbreaking program is specifically designed for young people in Armley, Beeston, Chapeltown, and Middleton areas where talent is abundant, but opportunity is often out of reach.

Our mission is simple: to take young people off the streets and into the digital frontier. By teaching high value AI content creation skills, we are providing a positive, creative, and lucrative alternative to the challenges of anti-social behaviour and crime.

What is AI Future Creators?

AI Future Creators is a series of intensive bootcamps and seminars that demystify Artificial Intelligence and put its power into the hands of our youth. We don’t just talk about technology; we teach young people how to use it to build careers, express their creativity, and impact their communities.

What You Will Learn:

• AI Art & Design: Mastering tools like Midjourney and DALL-E to create professional-grade visuals.
• AI Video Production: Learning how to script, generate, and edit videos using AI-driven platforms.
• AI-Enhanced Storytelling: Using LLMs to craft compelling narratives for blogs, social media, and business.
• Digital Entrepreneurship: How to turn AI skills into freelance opportunities and career paths.
• Ethics & Responsibility: Navigating the digital world safely and ethically.

Why This Matters

Leeds is a thriving digital hub, yet many of our local neighbourhoods remain digitally excluded. Armley and New Wortley recorded over 2,500 crimes in the past year alone [1], and areas like Beeston and Middleton face ongoing challenges with anti-social behaviour. 

AI Future Creators provides a direct solution by:

• Occupying Minds: Keeping young people busy with complex, rewarding projects.
• Building Futures: Providing skills that are in high demand in the modern job market.
• Fostering Community: Creating a safe space where young people can collaborate and support one another.
