(taxes and fees included)In April 2023, in the wake of the upcoming Artificial Intelligence and Data Act, an open letter by Canadian artists and creators voiced strong concerns over the impacts of generative AI systems on their livelihoods.
Taking up the opening keynote’s final words, panelists Michael Running Wolf of MILA, Dreaming Beyond AI’s Raziye Buse Çetin, and the leading figure behind the open letter, Blair Attard-Frost from the University of Toronto dive deeper into the critical role art plays in confronting tech power within the governance of AI. Led by writer and researcher Melissa Vincent, the panel explores not only how the impacts of generative AI systems threaten artists and creators but in turn how their voices and critical practices present an opportunity for thinking about AI governance differently.
