After six months of preparation and community building, Large Language Marketers (LLM) officially launched in Islamabad with “Generative AI for Creatives,” an event designed to connect marketers, designers, and storytellers around the possibilities of artificial intelligence in creative fields. The launch took place at the National Incubation Center (NIC) and marked the formal debut of a community focused on exploring how technology can enhance creativity rather than replace it.
Founded by Umar Nazir, Large Language Marketers was established with the belief that the future of creative expression depends on collaboration between human imagination and artificial intelligence. The platform aims to make AI accessible to creative professionals through workshops, discussions, and hands-on activities that promote experimentation and learning. Opening the event, Umar shared the story behind LLM and his motivation to create a space where creative minds can work with AI tools to expand their potential. The first session, titled “Co-Ideate with AI,” was led by Azaz Ul Hassan, Founder of Hundred Creative Folks, and demonstrated how generative AI can assist in idea generation for marketing campaigns, product design, and storytelling. Participants took part in a live Prompt Jam activity, where they used AI tools to develop unique concepts collaboratively, blending creative instincts with machine-generated insights.
The second session, “GenAI as Creative Partner,” was led by Rizwan Chauhan, Visual Design Lead at Vyro. He explored how AI can support visual storytelling, streamline workflows, and enhance the production of images and videos. Rizwan showcased several AI-based tools, including Vyro’s ImagineArt platform, and guided attendees in crafting precise prompts that align with artistic intent. The hands-on segment allowed participants to see AI’s potential as a genuine partner in visual design, encouraging collaboration between human vision and algorithmic capabilities. The event concluded with a co-creation activity that invited attendees to produce interactive visuals using AI tools, demonstrating how human and machine creativity can merge to create innovative outcomes.
The event also featured key partnerships with National Incubation Center Islamabad as the venue partner, Hundred Creative Folks as the community partner, TechJuice as the media partner, and Vyro as the creativity partner. Vyro provided attendees with free credits to explore ImagineArt, giving them an opportunity to experience Pakistani-built AI tools firsthand. In an interview with TechJuice, Vyro’s Senior Visual Artist, Syed Zain Ali Rizvi, discussed the limited awareness of generative AI startups in Pakistan. He highlighted that ImagineArt, developed in Pakistan, is performing well globally but noted that delayed adoption and limited digital infrastructure continue to slow down the rollout of generative AI technologies across the country.
Large Language Marketers aims to serve as a bridge between Pakistan’s creative industries and emerging AI technologies by offering education, mentorship, and collaboration opportunities. Its foundation rests on three key principles: AI for all, ensuring that learning and access remain inclusive; connecting experts and learners to encourage mutual growth; and designing AI education specifically for creative professionals, ensuring that complex tools become practical, relatable, and useful. Through events like “Generative AI for Creatives,” LLM hopes to cultivate a community that embraces AI as a tool for empowerment, helping Pakistan’s creative talent explore new frontiers of innovation and storytelling.
