Le Curieux is a small robot used to extract knowledge. Unlike other AIs, it doesn’t provide answers — it just asks more questions. Le Rêveur constantly dreams of design objects that may never exist, using the knowledge gathered by Le Curieux to imagine potential museum exhibitions.".

ctmfestival on November 13, 2024: "𝗖𝗧𝗠 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹 | 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜 𝗟𝗮𝗯 𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲: 𝟮𝟵 𝗡𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 Set within the 4DSOUND environment of MONOM, Berlin’s centre for spatial sound, the Wilding AI Lab is designed as a public experiment for sound artists and musicians to learn about and experiment with some of the latest AI systems bridging large-language models and generative AI sound, all within the spatialized audio environment. The lab follows the artist and researcher Beth Coleman’s appeal for imagining an AI »that can be free—if not to imagine, then to generate—speeding through possibilities, junctures that are idiotic until they are not.« Over four days the lab features a series of morning skill-sharing workshops for lab participants and interested members of the public, plus afternoons of hands-on experimentation closed to lab participants only. The sessions and lab will be hosted by artists and researchers including Portrait XO, Beth Coleman, Alexandre Saunier, and Maurice Jones, who among others have been active as the artistic core to the ongoing research-creation project »Wilding AI.« Launched in August 2024 at the MUTEK festival in Montreal, »Wilding AI« presents an open space to reopen the black boxes of generative AI. It gathers folks to encounter each other and the manifold artistic and technological experiments, interventions and provocations, which not only imagine but materially manifest wild AI futures. The initiative has continued experimenting at MUTEK.MX in October 2024 before landing at MONOM in Berlin just ahead of CTM Festival. › Apply via our bio 🔗 Graphic: @vojdvojd".

There is an abundance of both utopian and critical theoretical conversations about the impact of AI - and rightfully all important. Within the often overwhelming array, this symposium aims to disclose the actual making processes of artists using AI, the use of different systems and models, and herein, how artistic creators develop their work through assemblies of existing services and sometimes self-developed systems. Furthermore, we’ll be highlighting a variety of making processes and pressing questions concerning the future of synthetic-assisted creativity. Along with the illumination of these processes, critical and socio-cultural questions will be addressed, which are inseparable from working with AI. While being immersed in this state of AI, the symposium will also take a moment to zoom in and ask a series of fundamental questions about the potential next frontier of developments. In addition to the symposium, we are offering the two-day workshop BETWEEN THE LINES by the artist LOREM (@lorem_____) In it, you will use machine learning as an archive-based device for storytelling. Tickets and registration to both events are now online! SYMPOSIUM 🗓️ Fri Nov 29 ⏱️ 14:00 - 19:00 📍 Sandberg Institute, Amsterdam 🎟️ Tickets: link in bio Free tickets for all Sandberg & Rietveld Academy students and tutors WORKSHOP 🗓️ Thu Nov 28 + Sat Nov 30 ⏱️ Times to be announced 📍 Sandberg Institute + other 🎟️ Registration: link in bio Many thanks to @artificialtimes_mfa @sandberginstituut @afk020 @stimuleringsfonds an @pictoright Fonds for making this event happen.".

Rethink Design – A vocabulary for designing with AI addresses the question of how designers can engage with AI. The book presents 17 terms that were developed through inquiries into, and explorations of, designing and living with massively interconnected, potentially autonomous, and seemingly intelligent technologies. Unlike older technologies, these do not wait for human action but engage the world proactively, making decisions, communicating, and sharing data at speeds and scales that challenge comprehension. As such they destabilise and undermine boundaries, often with disregard to moral imperatives, and reconfigure not only the material world but also our relationships with it, with each other, and with ourselves. The terms are organised into 5 sections, each oriented by a key question: How will we craft inclusive human-algorithm relations?, How will we design AI systems that benefit people and the planet?, How will we create equitable socio-economic models in the digital society?, How will we enable public deliberation on data and algorithms?, and How will we prototype responsible data-driven design practices? Taken together the terms provide a sense-making instrument, a map for navigating flexibly a complex, emergent terrain. Reflecting and responding to the dynamism of the field, the book aims to be agile and accessible, offering not the final word but a brief, critical and creative introduction – a set of complementary vistas, entry points, and insights.

Published in Nature Human Behaviour, the Professor of International and Cyber Security with co-authors urge a closer examination of how the GenAI discourse shapes research and policies.

ivonatau on November 5, 2024: "In a world where algorithms shape our feeds, this project examines the flattening of culture and the aesthetics that dominate social media. Trained on images specifically selected from my ‘For You’ section, the model mirrors a streamlined, curated visual ideal—a reflection of what the platform values most: appealing to the masses. But in the process, the art loses its uniqueness, its message blurred. This work questions how social media’s influence affects personal expression and art’s value in an age of algorithmic visibility. What even is art and artist in this skewed definition? Part of my bigger exploration around the algorithmic culture. #AIArt #DigitalCulture #AlgorithmicAesthetics”".
