@AOC on point! We’re tackling this topic in our next salon on Artificial Intelligence

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

When you don’t address human bias, that bias gets automated.

Machines are reflections of their creators, which means they are flawed, & we should be mindful of that.

It’s one good reason why diversity isn’t just “nice,” it’s a safeguard against trends like this ⬇️

Render Residency 🙌💯 partnerships are key. We love this idea💡🔌 via @laturboavedon an artist in the museum’s collection!

Arts institutions and hardware manufacturers have an opportunity to make these projects come to full fruition. If you’re involved in these sectors and enjoy digital art, raise your hand if you have ways that you can help

"Thomson and Craighead call many of their multimedia pieces “desktop documentaries,” because they’re made entirely from online material. A Short Film About War is one of these." https://t.co/8lCsTBotaC featured in 'The Current // Truth' curated by @TinaRiversRyan

Our Q&A with @constantdull on https://t.co/c2m6O5QQhe
⚡️ “Bot Armies & Authoring Audiences”
https://t.co/Bpe1snxwW9

[The Current Museum @CurrentMuseum]

Last question, @constantdull - are there any emerging trends in social media conversations you're thinking about a lot now? Any themes we might see in upcoming work from you?

[aart @constantdull]

@CurrentMuseum i think the idea of 'alternate facts' was always the realm of artists, providing an escape.. and we need to reclaim this..

[The Current Museum @CurrentMuseum]

So @constantdull on Friday at The Current, we'll perform https://t.co/c2m6O5QQhe, a poem that bots post as comments on the USAgov Instagram account. Explain your goals with this one?

[The Current Museum @CurrentMuseum]

@constantdull fake accounts have been in the news a lot lately. Whether it’s about elections or advertising models, bots seem to be changing the world in major ways. What’s something you wish more people understood about how they’re used or why they work?

[The Current Museum @CurrentMuseum]

@constantdull what does it mean to ‘author an audience’? And has it evolved to mean different things as you’ve played with this form in various pieces?
