See keynotes with Maya AckermanWhat is generative AI? How does machine creativity relate to human creativity, and what will become of us in the age of creative machines? We will delve into the essence of generative AI, drawing on comparisons to our own brains. A vision of the future of creativity will be presented, along with a discussion of potential risks brought on by these powerful creative machines.
With the rise of creative AI systems, many fear that machines will take away the pleasure of human creative expression. But what if, instead, machines could genuinely elevate our creative abilities? In this interactive workshop, we will utilize several Generative AI systems to discover your inner poet, artist, and musician, and show how creative machines can help you delve deeper into your own creative potential.
The rise of generative AI has ushered in a slew of complex ethical dilemmas. How will creative machines fit into humanity’s future? What implications will they have on the trajectory of human creativity? As we integrate these technologies into our world, how can we do so responsibly, amplifying their advantages while curbing potential dangers? This talk delves into an earnest exploration of the benefits and challenges presented by this swiftly advancing domain.
While machines with creative capabilities have been around since the 1950s, their emergence into mainstream consciousness didn’t truly materialize until late 2022. In this talk, we’ll trace the evolution of creative machines from their roots in Computational Creativity to their contemporary recognition under the term ‘Generative AI’. An interactive demo will spotlight several systems dedicated to the production of art and music. Additionally, we’ll grapple with pivotal questions about the trajectory of human creativity in this era of technological artistry, proposing a strategy to ensure that generative AI augments, rather than eclipses, our innate creative spirit.
While musical AI has only recently begun to enter industry, AI-based systems have been creating music for over 70 years. This talk will showcase and discuss some of the most exciting generative AI music systems systems from industry and academia, spanning composition and improvisation. We will also address exciting opportunities and what the future holds in this emerging field.
