Masterclass - AI for artistic and literary creation. A critical vision
A performative conference in favor of generative, erratic and poorly made Artificial Intelligences. By Ezequiel Soriano.
Specific goals | Temary
The premise of many developers to improve generative artificial intelligence is to try to emulate the results of human creativity. But humans make mistakes, get frustrated and fail. And it is in the error where the materials take center stage, undoing the artist to impose himself. If we intend to expand creativity through AIs, then we must create bad AIs, that fail, that do not do what we want.
This activity playfully presents a critical reflection on the use of AI in the field of art, which aims to separate itself from romantic apocalyptic discourses, as well as techno-utopian positions.
Participants will be able to learn more about the possible repercussions of cultural production based on AI and reflect on the meanings of creativity.
SPECIFIC GOALS
- Promote a critical approach to Artificial Intelligence
- Speculate on the future of Artificial Intelligence applied to artistic creation
- Problematize the idea of creativity applied to generative artificial intelligences
- Show the evolution of generative artificial intelligences in recent years
TEMARY
- Creativity and AI. The modern idea of creativity applied to AI.
- Brief development of the advancement of GANs in recent years.
- Error and materials in the creative process.
- Speculating on a future in which AIs fail better.
