ARS ELECTRONICA ARCHIVE – AI LAB

The European ARTificial Intelligence Lab (AI Lab) is a follow-up project to the European Digital Art and Science Network, a creative collaboration between scientific institutions, Ars Electronica and cultural partners throughout Europe that unites science and digital art. The European ARTificial Intelligence Lab follows on from this and addresses visions, expectations and fears that we associate with artificial intelligence. The consortium consists of 13 cultural institutions from Europe with Ars Electronica as coordinator. This online archive provides an overview of all activities carried out during the project's lifetime from 2018 to 2021. It also provides information about the network itself, the residency artists and juries, and the project partners involved. The AI Lab is co-funded by the EU program "Creative Europe (2014-2020)" and by the Federal Ministry of Arts, Culture, Civil Service and Sport.

    • TEXT
    AI infrastructures are being developed and deployed. In cadence with their implementation, our dependency on digital systems grows. However, new algorithms still carry old bias and societal discourse is limited by lack of access and dissolution of commons. The panel turns to experts in the fields of science, art and technology to help recognize the formative processes, made rampant by digital technology, that shape our living together. On a global scale, society has been dealt a foul hand within the parameters of “A New Deal”. The panel will give a platform to concepts, projects and individual actors who take an active role in changing that fact.

    Speakers: Caroline Sinders (US), Kilian Kleinschmidt (DE), Glacier Kwong (HK), Simon Weckert (DE)
    Moderation: Julia Kloiber (AT)

    Credits: This conference is presented in the framework of the European ARTificial Intelligence Lab, which is co-funded by the Creative Europe Program of the European Union and the Austrian Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, Civil Service and Sport.
