Congratulations to Nik Dorndorf, Our February 2025 Ambassador of the Month!

Nik, Co-Founder & CTO of creiai]tion, is redefining the design process with AI. His startup is building a digital muse for designers, tackling the challenge of translating ideas into visuals more seamlessly. Instead of relying on tedious sketching, crerai]tion allows designers to “speak” in their own language—using visual attributes like shape, color, and material. With AI that adapts to each user’s unique style, the platform creates a more personalized, dynamic design experience.

Beyond his work at crekai]tion, Nik is passionate about making AI more applicable to real-world workflows, shifting the focus from improving models to integrating AI seamlessly into specific tasks. His past research on uncertainty estimation in AI models explored ways to help users trust AI by understanding when a model is confident—or when it’s uncertain. His contributions to this field include co-authoring several papers, such as:

Zigzag: Universal Sampling-Free Uncertainty Estimation Through Two-Step Inference
Effects of Domain Randomization on Simulation-to-Reality Transfer of Reinforcement Learning Policies for Industrial Robots
Partal: Efficient Partial Active Learning in Multi-Task Visual Settings

Nik is also an active part of AI Hub Frankfurt, a community pushing to unlock the potential of data and AI in one of Europe’s key economic centers through events and training programs.

Join us in celebrating Nik and his contributions to AI, design, and beyond!
