Free Talk - The Illusion of Life: The Rewards and Risks of Using AI

Does AI understand what it creates - or are we only seeing what we want to see in a cloud of slop?

Join John N A Brown in person or online for a free talk on how generative AI is influencing everything from filmmaking and storytelling to design, computing, and other creative-technical professions - followed by a Q&A.

John N A Brown is an author and former Silicon Valley problem-solver whose background includes work with Google, Amazon, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube - as well as past lives as an editorial cartoonist, aviation safety investigator, bricklayer, and animator. His work explores how the tools we build, particularly AI, shape the way we think, act, and create, drawing on influences from Human Factors, Neuropsychology, and UX from an anthropological perspective.
