Formerly Westchester PC Users Group (WPCUG)

We are excited to introduce our new name, TechEdConnect^SM, and our new logo, which better reflects who we are today. The changeover will occur over the next several months as we are currently building a brand new website.

The new website will be mobile-friendly and will offer additional features. In the meantime, you will continue to see the WPCUG name and logo on various pages of the current website.

We are a non-profit technology club located in Westchester County, New York.
Our goal is to increase the computing knowledge of our members and our community.

All workshops and General Meetings are currently held on Zoom
until we can hold in-person General Meetings again.

General Meetings

February General Meeting
AI generated art and photography
February 2, 2023 @ 7 p.m. ET

Remote attendance via Zoom video conference (no meeting at Keller Williams).

Whether you like them or not, Artificial Intelligence (AI) image generators have exploded in popularity this year and the technology shows no signs of stopping.

At the start of 2022, there were hardly any AI text-to-image generators available to the public, but with DALL-E finally becoming available in beta in July and Stable Diffusion being released a month later, there are now suddenly an array of AI image generators vying to be the best software on the market.

So if you’re feeling confused about which AI Image generator you should use in 2023, attend this meeting to see your choices!

Our presenter will be our own Jim Iscaro.

Plan now to attend!
