About this Event
Join us in Coral Gables for a fascinating discussion with Mark Seligman, author of AI and ADA: Artificial Translation and Creation of Literature (First Hill Books, $24.95), as he traces the evolution of artificial intelligence through essays on machine translation, Nabokov’s artistry, and the rise of large language models. Blending humor, scholarship, and fresh insight, Seligman explores what machines can—and cannot—yet understand about meaning, emotion, and art. A conversation, audience Q&A, and signing will follow.
🎟 Free & open to the public — RSVP required.
