So say London Tsai and Andreas Killen, two participants in an interdisciplinary symposium at the CUNY Graduate Center exploring recent developments in the creative uses of artificial intelligence.
Scholars and specialists addressed ethical and political considerations surrounding AI in collaborations with human creators. Topics ranged from AI aesthetics to the early history of machine learning, from multimedia art to computational research experiments with artificial intelligence, including AI biases and applications.
Tsai made an updated version of the Gysin-Sommerville Dreamachine and brought it to the symposium, where it was used to demonstrate its effects. Helen Koh, who organized the two-day symposium, tells me that a video of Tsai and Killen’s presentation will be posted online (eventually). When it is, I’ll post the link.
