Images, Artists and AI – evening event with The New Real

Join us in the Photography Centre for an evening event about images, artists and AI. Delve deep into how images and image-making have been impacted by recent advances in machine learning, and hear from artists who have long engaged with the creative potential of AI. Explore how generative imagery has evolved – and the ethical questions it raises – to learn about how art and creativity can help to radically change how we understand AI.

This event is organised in partnership with The New Real, a unique hub for AI, creativity and futures research, to celebrate the re-launch of its magazine The New Real Editions. The New Real supports projects that explore how AI impacts on life at a profound level, often interacting with us in fascinating and unanticipated ways, and how emerging technology can become a creative, playful and deeply impactful part of everyday living.

The event will feature short presentations followed by a panel discussion. Speakers include artists Liliana Farber, Juan Covelli and Caroline Sinders, alongside Drew Hemment from the Alan Turing Institute.
