We were fortunate to welcome AI artist and NMD alumnus Eryk Salvaggio to talk to our Introduction to New Media class about the technology, ethics, and aesthetics of AI-generated media. Among the questions from students were:

* Can AI models be tricked into bad behavior?
* Will generative AI plateau?
* Can deepfakes be stopped?
* Why the deformed hands?

Check out our interactive recording of this lively conversation at https://nmdprojects.net/teleconferences/nmd_webinar_ai_media_qa_2023.html.

This Wednesday at 3:30pm Eastern is our last webinar of the season, on making images with AI.

Generative AI has been expanding the creative possibilities of art and design well before text generators like ChatGPT caught the world's attention. Given nothing more than a few well-chosen phrases, software like DALLE-2, Stable Diffusion, and Midjourney can quickly generate never-before seen images that are outlandish or realistic, in styles ranging from photographic to cartoonish. This workshop by Aaron Boothroyd will demo a handful of these tools and entertain a discussion about how they might change art education as well as work prospects for creative professionals.
