Barrios-O'Neill, Danielle, O'Boyle, Louise and Binyamini Ben Meir, Nirit, 2024, Conference or Workshop, The AI art school: A speculative design workshop at The AI Art School, Royal College of Art, 2024-03-01 - 2024-03-01.

Abstract or Description:

[I was organiser of the workshop] Funded and hosted by GLAD Group for Learning in Art & Design Higher Education, of which I was a committee member. 65 participants from UK and Ireland HEIs took part in a full-day speculative design workshop led by creative practitioners from the Royal College of Art. All explored emerging and future challenges related to artificial intelligence in the creative education space through a panel discussion, experimental workshop and roundtable conversation. The panel brought together researchers, artists and experts in AI and the arts, to give a horizon scan on where we are now, and raised several unique provocations for attendees to consider as educators and citizens in the AI space. In the workshop, attendees experimented actively with digital and analogue tools to bring generative, collective and artificial intelligences into the creative space, and reflected on how they can influence both teaching and outcomes. The roundtable closed the day as an open forum for discussion on creative AI in education, including reflection on what creative AI futures we want, and how to actively engage with creating them. It was a playful and dynamic day of engaging critically with the future of creative AI and the future of education, useful to educators and policymakers alike.
