Tea Talk: Negotiating Humanity

Ars Electronica Futurelab (AT)

POSTCITY, First Floor, Open Futurelab
Fri 6. Sep 2024 15:30 – 16:30

At this Tea Talk, researchers and artists from the Ars Electronica Futurelab invite you to explore human identity, creativity, and ethics with regard to AI and data over a (literal and figurative) cup of tea.

Creative Intelligence and Data Sentience

Together, we want to discuss what role AI plays in our reflections on humanity along with the foundational leaps in AI and the implications of its rapid advancement on society. As we delegate more and more interpretive agency for massive amounts of information to complex AI-enhanced systems, how do we stay connected to its meaning and retain our ability to converse about it as a human society? How do we talk about data in terms of “sensing” and “feeling” in addition to knowing and understanding? This Tea Talk provides a welcoming space for artists, scientists and enthusiasts to collectively participate in a critical discourse about creative intelligence and human creativity as well as data sentience.
