@OnlyHumanArt @DCMS @designcouncil @weareskribbl Thank you for your excellent contribution. So many perspectives on this flying round atm so very lucky to have chance to bring them all together :)

[Only Human Art @OnlyHumanArt]

🤖🎨 Fascinating meeting with the @DCMS, expertly facilitated by @designcouncil & @catdrew_ ! We delved deep into the world of #AI and its evolving impact on design & creative sectors.

At @weareskribbl, we've always championed the harmony of human creativity & responsible use of AI. Today's conversation reaffirmed our belief that while AI can be a powerful tool, it should NEVER be used to replace the role of human artists. 🙌✍️

🚫 For brands that agree that it's crucial we use AI responsibly, learn more about our stance and show your support by signing the #OnlyHumanArtDeclaration at https://t.co/ltAhM1knfq #OnlyHumanArt #SkribblForCreativity #AIinDesign #KeepArtHuman ❤️👩‍🎨🤖

[Ada Lovelace Institute @AdaLovelaceInst]

📢'Attitudes to AI' is our new microsite with @turinginst, showcasing the findings of our public attitudes survey and report 'How do people feel about AI?'

It highlights key findings and responses around benefits, concerns and #AI regulation.

Nice blog sharing different perspectives (policymaker, community innovator, designer, evaluator) from our mission-led design programme with @MayorofLondon. Collaboration not competition, spreading impact rather than scaling.

[LDNMayor Economy @LDN_economy]

Today’s discussion focused on Designing London’s Recovery, a partnership between @mayoroflondon @designcouncil & @ucl.

Our goal was to create a more inclusive ecosystem to solve London’s most pressing issues. Read all about this pioneering programme #LTW
