A simple guide for CPG Vietnam staff to understand AI, see how it helps your daily work, and share your own ideas.
What do you need help with today?
No tech jargon. Just plain language.
In one sentence: AI stands for artificial intelligence, a field of computer science focused on building systems that can perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as recognizing patterns, understanding language, generating content, making predictions, and supporting decisions. Most AI used today is narrow AI, designed for specific tasks rather than general human-like thinking.
Think of it like a colleague who has read every book, every report, and every manual , and can answer your questions instantly. You still make the decisions; it helps you get there faster.
EverydayIn architecture and design, AI can generate concept sketches, check drawings for errors, write meeting summaries, and compare documents , so you spend time on creative thinking, not repetitive tasks.
Design & WorkCPG follows strict AI usage guidelines approved by leadership. Never share confidential client data with public AI tools. Ask your manager if unsure about what's allowed.

Pick a task type. Get the approved tool, a short workflow, and a ready-to-use prompt.
Start with one coordinated 3D source, then move through three clear output paths: visualisation, motion, and presentation.
Select any tool to see its role in the workflow.
Keep the approved geometry as the single source of truth before creating downstream outputs.
Test atmosphere, material, lighting, and visual direction while retaining the approved model.
Turn an approved still or model sequence into concise motion for reviews, teasers, and concept films.
Structure the design narrative, review mixed media, and prepare concise presentation content.
