What's happening with Ai in the performing arts?

Ai Music has been around for a while - but what about Ai in Dance?

Nicole Seiler (https://lnkd.in/g6DUK9JS) has been exploring the space of video/images/installations and choreography for the last two decades.

Always at the edge of 'what's next?' - Nicole's latest production, 'Human in the Loop' explores 'Ai choreography'.

Karn Malhotra and Nicole discussed robotic dancers, whether Ai is a tool or a collaborator, datasets in different languages and their impact on dance and how far are we from Ai enabled dancers replacing human dancers!

In the middle of this Ai hype cycle, it's important to pause, reflect and ask critical questions. Who better to do this with than an anthropologist!

Michiel Baas is presently a senior research fellow with the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, was previously a research fellow at National University of Singapore and co-ordinator with the International Institute of Asian Studies in Leeden & Amsterdam.

He chats with Karn Malhotra, as they explore societal attitudes towards Ai and ask critical questions:

- Should we give Ai agency?

- To what degree are we anthropromorphosizing this technology?

- What would it take for us to accept it as a cohabitant rather than a threat to our species?

- Michiel's work profiling data scientists

- Data is 'knowledge' - should data scientists be gatekeepers?

- Data is binary, gender isn't. Do data scientists factor this into LLM's?

In this conversation, between Karn Malhotra and Pontus Wärnestål, we cover 'Ai & Design Services'. Pontus is the Head of Ai Design & Innovation at eghed and Deputy Professor at Halmstad University, as also the author of the new book, 'Designing Ai-Powered Services' (link to buy in comments)

In 2018, Pontus also introduced the 'Augmented Services Canvas', introducing a framework to think of 'Ai as a material' in the design process.

In Part 1 they discuss:

- Are 'flow states' possible with Ai?

- What's the difference between Agentive, Assistive & Adaptive services?

- What will be the role of designers in all of this? Will they all need to learn to code?

- What's the best course to get started with Ai in Design?

- What is The Augmented Services Canvas? How can brands and agencies use it to design Ai-powered services?

- With the rapid pace of innovation in Generative Ai, what will the landscape look like in 2024?

Given the lack of clarity around Ai's impact on creative and advertising agencies, we felt it was important to speak with someone from the agency world who has been exploring creative-tech for a long time. 

And so, meet Manolis Perrakis, Innovation Director at Hello!WeAreSocial, Singapore and before this a Creative Technologist at DDB as also the Head of Creative Technology at Ogilvy and a New Media Artist.

Manolis has been dabbling in creative tech for the last 10+ years

He helps demystify a lot of 'noise' around Ai and Creative Tech and shares with us why he's extremely excited and hopeful about the use of Ai in the creative industries, in this conversation with Karn Malhotra

Listen into this 15min chat and let us know in the comments if you feel just as hopeful about Ai or you feel there still are many unknowns...

An artist who's expression is through Ai and computational technologies, Harshit has been creating art with Ai as his 'material' for nearly 10 years now - well before the GenerativeAi craze of the last 6+ months. Harshit speaks about his experiments with Ai, his latest work at India Habitat Centre, inspiration from fellow Ai Artist's and how students can think of their place in this Ai art ecosystem.

The global podcasting market stands at $23.7 Billion as of 2023 and projected to 5x this number by 2030.

While the market potential is huge, 'podfading' happens with as many as 50% of all new podcasts - one key reason is it takes just too long to edit and manage the production side of a podcast. (we feel this pain!)

Here to help you auto-edit, optimize sound, transcribe and even auto create social content from your podcast are Podflow - an Ai podcasting tool that does all this and more.

Karn Malhotra had an engaging chat with Podflow's co-founder Mackinzie Hamilton of Brigham Young University to get to know the product and team better.

Check out this quick 13min chat.

Here to disrupt the $200 Billion global e-learning & learning and development markets with their Ai based course creation platform is Mindsmith.
