On Friday, the conference moves forward in time to explore current and future prospects of our increasingly digital world. Art and creativity have always been viewed as important contributors to ensuring that future technological implementations will happen under consideration of enlightened, critical and qualified perspectives.
In recent years, we have lost confidence in the impartial and responsible use of our digital technologies and media. We should discuss whether trust in distinguished media outlets needs to be reestablished and the growing role of social media for formation of public opinions should be critically questioned. We should establish a sensible implementation of the emerging autonomous systems into our society, without forfeiting our humane values to economic calculations. Not only the arts, technology and economy are presented with the important task of preserving our humanity on our journey from automatization to autonomization – how can every one of us take an active role in shaping our future?
