26.03.13 - NINNO ACCADEMIA × MetAI × HP Workshop: "Generating AI Images Locally"
At NINNO in Niigata we ran a hands-on workshop on generating AI images locally on HP workstations.
On March 13, 2026, we held the NINNO ACCADEMIA × MetAI × HP spot event "Generating AI Images Locally" at NINNO in Niigata, with a morning and an afternoon session.
Participants tried local generation — creating images on their own machine, without the cloud — using HP GPU workstations.
Program
- About MetAI
- What makes local generation different, and the benefits of HP workstations
- Introduction to ComfyUI
- Character-generation demo (choosing models, prompting, changing angle and zoom)
- Hands-on practice
- Copyright points to watch when using AI models and nodes
- Q&A
The workshop was aimed at people working in illustration and design, video, marketing and PR, and anyone wanting to learn the latest AI generation. Many thanks to HP for lending the GPU workstations, and to NINNO ACCADEMIA!
