AI has well and truly arrived and designers have lots of questions. So let's chat!
Join us for a conversation between Neil Chenery and Vic/Tas Branch Chair, Karen Webster exploring:
What is AI and should we be worried?
Is there such a thing as AI art?
The ethical use of AI – creator’s rights, copyright, ethical content, shadow AI.
Is AI having a real effect on the income of creatives?
How do you tell if something is AI generated?
How do I use AI, what options are there?
What can we expect in the (near) future?
