CuratingAI: Exploring AI in traditional art mediums

We just wrapped an extraordinary two weeks here in Berkeley exhibiting art that makes use of AI in novel ways. I was the co-founder and co-curator of the show, called CuratingAI. While our common experience with (generative) AI is digital—rendered and consumed on screens—CuratingAI was designed to highlight physical works (ie., sculptures, painting, and drawing) that use AI as a key element in the creative process. This juxtaposition of the intangible AI with the tangible opened the opportunity for viewers to reflect on timely debates about training data, bias, ownership, and the transference of creativity between digital and physical realms.
