MACHINE - Interdisciplinary Forum 2020

MACHINE is the theme and so much a part of our lives that many may wonder how we'd live without it. Developments in AI (artificial intelligence) has jumped in leaps and bounds with data and algorithms invading our daily lives. It engages us as individuals, communities and societies, whether as creators or consumers. From simulating our intelligence to collecting our personal data, it has become a pressing concern of our time. The Ian Potter Museum of Art invites you to jump in and engage and asks if you've ever considered how technology might promote discrimination or impair our ability to make shrewd decisions? Or wondered how an AI doctor might diagnose illness just through listening?

Food for thought and a subject about something that's going to be a large part of our future. These are just two of a host of questions that'll be considered at the MACHINE forum that'll take place over three days via Zoom from Tue 15 to Thu 17 Sep 2020.
