SUMMARY:Artificial or Intelligence? at Del Ray Artisans Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Artificial or Intelligence? Art Exhibit\nOctober 4–26\, 2024\nOpening Reception: Friday\, October 4 from 7–9pm\n“Sum of its parts?” by Nicole Mahoney\n \nTalk about artificial intelligence\, or AI\, abounds. When humans work with AI\, is the outcome less than\, equal to\, or greater than the sum of its parts? Come see the Artificial or Intelligence? art exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery as we explore this and other questions. Join us for the opening reception on Friday\, October 4 between 7-9pm to meet curators Nicole Mahoney and Nancy Galib and the artists. Mark your calendar now or set a reminder through Eventbrite. \nPeople have very different perspectives on AI’s possibilities and perils. This exhibit explores what the future might look like with AI. Consider what we may gain and lose\, and how AI impacts artists’ creative practice and day-to-day lives. Participate in our conversation and decide for yourself whether machine learning feels artificial or intelligent at the present moment. All artwork is available for sale. \nAlso mark your calendar for the following special program held in conjunction with the exhibit: \nAI & Artists: A Discussion On What Artists Should Know\nSaturday\, October 19\, 6:30-8pm @ Torpedo Factory Art Center\, Grand Hall (105 N.
