Prof. Ricardo Miranda will lead a conversation with four artists who are doing some of the most exciting and urgent work at the intersection of art and AI today. What happens to creativity when AI enters the room? Who gets to shape these technologies, and what do artists have to say about it? This panel will not offer easy solutions or answers. Instead, it will be an interactive, engaging conversation that takes these questions seriously, across all of the arts, which is what HUMANities x Tech is all about.
