Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized many industries and creative domains. Art, music, and architecture are no exception. Can AI inspire us to become more creative? Or does AI-generated art, music, and architecture lack originality and human creativity?
Welcome to this TEDxKTH Salon, where we will discuss the possibilities and challenges of AI and creativity. You will also have the opportunity to listen to AI-generated music and experience AI-generated art.
This is the eighth TEDxKTH Salon organized by KTH Library, and we are particularly delighted to have Tekniska, National Museum of Science and Technology as a partner for this event. During the break, Tekniska will take you on a journey through space, demonstrating how storytelling can be used in Open Space. The station will be led by Jesper Wallerborg and Alex Kaminska. Magdalena Tafvelin Helder and Emilie Sabel will conduct a mini workshop on ethics and existence using Tekniska's ethics machine.
