AI Ethics, Artists, and What You Can Do About It

Following my AI discussion with developer Evan Conrad I sat down with artists ‪@StevenZapataArt‬ and Karla Ortiz to get the artist’s perspective of AI. They’ve both been voicing their concerns about the quickly emerging technology and we have a very productive discussion surrounding the ethics of AI art.

If you didn’t see my conversation with Evan Conrad I’ve linked to it below. You can also contact Evan Conrad to ask questions about art and AI with either DM on Twitter (  / evanjconrad  ) or email at [email protected]
