Will AI Kill Creativity? Ai-Da Robot | Lara Lewington and Ben Clark

Описание: The Age of AI returns with Lara Lewington and Ben Clark tackling one of the biggest questions in society right now: will artificial intelligence destroy human creativity, or transform it?

We are joined by Aidan Meller, creator of Ai-Da, the world’s first ultra-realistic robot artist. From exhibitions at Oxford and the United Nations to portraits of world leaders, Meller explains how Ai-Da is built, how she creates art, and why he believes robots force us to confront uncomfortable questions about creativity, identity, power and control.

We'll also be delving into the biggest AI headlines, from eye-watering Big Tech investment bets to growing concerns about chatbots giving medical advice, and the rapid rise of voice AI company ElevenLabs. But when AI can clone a voice perfectly, can you really tell the difference between Lara and Ben and their digital doubles?
