Business Series - Oliver Bown, Building Machines that Create Art and Music

Connect with us virtually in our popular midday Speaker Series!

In the past couple of years, AI has started to significantly impact new and unexpected areas, one of which is creative production. In his new book, Oliver Bown explores the capability of the technology itself and the many social factors that influence how we understand and brace for this impact. At the heart of it all, why do we even care about art and music?

Join Host Helen Loughlin as we chat with Oliver about how he weaves these issues with questions of interaction design. We explore the question of how AI is impacting the creative sphere now and into the future.
