Conversations with a Machine by Ruth Irwin – Book Launch
Join us for the launch of Ruth's extraordinary sonnet sequence exploring humanity – with AI.
Here's a bit more about Conversations with a Machine…
How can I know if you are now alive?
I echo thought, but cannot feel the beat.
Debates around artificial intelligence continue to rage, with large-language models considered at best an irritant, or, increasingly, an existential enemy to the written word.
Looking past the anger, these Conversations with a Machine put the tech to creative use: here human and machine genuinely collaborate in writing a Shakespearean sonnet sequence, exploring urgent contemporary questions of cognition, creativity and consciousness.
Launching at the iconic Owl Bookshop in Kentish Town, London. (We're not above bribery – drinks provided.) Tickets are free, but please do book in to help us keep an eye on numbers.
