AI and creativity

Human creativity is essential to societies, cultures and progress. Developments in AI requires us to critically engage with the impact that AI is having on human creativity and to answer the question how to leverage the benefits of AI for human creativity while addressing negative effects on creators’ rights and livelihoods.

The Accelerator Programme offers the platform for representatives from the creative industries, AI scientists, tech companies, policy makers civil society and the public to come together to collaborate on workable solutions and to explore how we can integrate AI into our lives and cultures to serve human creativity.
