AI in the Arts

Generative AI has had a seismic impact on arts and design in the last year. From the ethical concerns that have driven litigation to the torrent of graphics-generating large language models that have become more openly available, we are in an ecological shift for computer aided design and image generation rivaled only by the shift from photochemical to digital image making brought on by smartphones.

This working group, which meets monthly, represents a diverse range of disciplinary and cultural perspectives gathered in shared study of AI potentialities, particularly in the context of arts and design higher education.

Membership in this working group has been curated by the co-chairs for Fall 2024.
