Discover how artists are engaging with artificial intelligence (AI) and how this rapidly evolving technology is shaping contemporary art practice in this lecture by Jessica Priebe. The use of generative AI tools has advanced exponentially over the last 18 months, provoking both enthusiasm and anxiety in the art world. While some visual artists are harnessing the power of AI to produce new and innovative work through machine learning techniques, others are using this technology to surface the contentious debates around copyright, authorship and theft. Dr Jessica Priebe is an art historian and lecturer in generative AI, blockchain and metaverse curation at the National Art School, an adjunct advisor in emerging technologies at the Museum of Contemporary Art and researcher at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology’s Blockchain Innovation Hub. Priebe’s current research project investigates the impact of generative AI and decentralised technologies in art education. Saturday 14 September 2-3pm.
