Today, we’re continuing our conversation with Sasha Dees on AI’s application in the arts, as well as applications of VR and AR technology. Sasha Dees is an independent writer, curator, and researcher from the Netherlands. Make sure to listen to the previous episode if you haven’t. Quoting curator Brian Kuan Wood, whom I had the pleasure to interview before for the Taipei Biennial, what these cutting edge tools could bring is both “a promise and a threat.” As of today, what are some key differences between AI and humans? Sasha and I talked about social interactions, intent and meaning making, and the balance between tech application and traditional ways of art creation. Also, if asked you’re the question “What is the greatest technology of all time?” What would you say? Have you thought of the answer “nature?” In this episode we reflect a lot on cutting-edge technology vs being human. Towards the end, Sasha also shared with us a hopeful note for the future.
Without further ado, hit play and let’s jump back in with our guest, Sasha Dees. Make sure to follow us on Instagram @rtienglish for video highlights!
