AI and Creativity

The past years has seen a surge in AI-powered creative tools such as ChatGPT, Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion. As a creative species we are in an interesting period of accelerated learning, as we explore how to create with artificial, natural and other intelligences. It’s a time for discussions on a wide array of questions:

What is the role of humans in the future of creative work? Who owns what? Can creatives opt out of letting their work train the machine learning algorithms? What happens if advanced tools for creative expression are increasingly made available to all, in a new era of digital democratisation? What’s the value of creative work? What could, and will, a symbiotic relationship between humans, nature, technology and audiences look like?
