24 Oct Colloquium - Eyal Gruss, Art Must Be Generated



abstract: In 1974, Israeli poet David Avidan prophesied that "computer codes will be the authors of the transcripts of the future, and we shall be the guiding-mind and the approving-eye". Developments in generative deep-learning methods of the past year, including GPT-3, Maxine, DALL-E and CLIP, may mark the onset of such an era, where creators will communicate ideas rather than media. I will discuss the use case of AI for augmenting and empowering human creativity and expressivity, and explore social and moral aspect of synthetic media.
