\nThe Art in Artificial Intelligence<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cArtificial Intelligence\u201d is not one grand thing, it is a grab-bag of many different technologies.\u00a0 Some of them are ready for use in the artist atelier, while others are close.<\/span><\/p>\n

But which ones can work, and why, and what artistic purpose might they serve?\u00a0 In this presentation, Bruce Sterling runs through four different futurist scenarios for possible artistic applications of deep learning, machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, robotics, neural nets, and even some good old-fashioned, rules-based, antiquated Artificial Intelligence.<\/span><\/p>\n
