Talk: Creativity Cannot Be Computed
Computers are great. But should we put them in charge of creativity? Can they push boundaries, take moral stances, move audiences or turn personal experiences into works of art that resonate? In his talk, Hidde will make the case for making and enjoying art, in all its shapes and forms. We'll explore what makes art special, to understand better what it means to delegate its creation to computers.
