Conclave 2026

This GIA session will be repeated.

Generative AI is moving quickly from a novelty tool for inspiration toward a practical part of the jewelry design workflow. This session explores how today’s AI platforms are being used to create more realistic jewelry concepts, test material and proportion accuracy, and support the development of 3D design assets. We will look at where these tools are already helping retailers communicate ideas more effectively with clients, as well as where they still fall short of true manufacturing readiness. Attendees will leave with a clearer sense of what AI can do today, what is still hype, and how to evaluate these tools without compromising the craftsmanship, trust, and artistry at the heart of fine jewelry.
