Where Art Meets the Future of Intelligence
The boundary between technology and creativity is shifting. As AI transforms the global landscape, the question remains: where does the artist stand?
Join us in Rome for the official launch of ARTIFACT, a Creative Europe co-funded initiative designed to place visual artists at the heart of the AI revolution. We are moving beyond the technical “buzz” to champion a human-centric AI, one where artists are not just end-users, but the co-designers of the tools and policies shaping the future of the visual arts.
The Vision
ARTIFACT is more than a project, it is a movement to ensure that the digital evolution of the cultural sector remains ethically grounded and creatively driven.
Our Rome Launch Event will focus on:
- Exploring AI as a catalyst for groundbreaking creative opportunities while navigating the risks of standardization and tech-dependency.
- A deep dive into how the cultural sector can implement AI that respects authors’ rights, promotes diversity, and protects the human element of art.
