“Using AI to Expand Creativity” encourages you to think deeply about AI and its relationship to the essential humanity of creative expression. With the rapid adoption, growth, and development of contemporary AI tools, we believe teaching you how to think about this fundamental dynamic will prepare you for an unpredictable future. This course features instructor-led discussions of the history of AI's implementation in twentieth and twenty-first-century art and a contemplation of technology's basic impact on creative practice. Guest lectures also feature experts Brian Miller, Brian Gogan, Julie Zhu, and Kelly Hoppenjans, who will discuss experimental uses of AI tools, including AI-powered robotic musical performance. As the final course in this three-course series, you will engage with work from the previous two courses to deliver a cumulative experience that will transform your future engagement with AI tools.
This is the third course in “AI for Creative Work,” a series exploring how artificial intelligence can enhance the work of creatives.
