Design Innovation Sessions | Digital Futures: The AI We Choose

During the Mission Days, part of Dutch Design Week, we bring together designers, researchers and professionals to discuss current themes that are shaping our future. From Tuesday 20 to Thursday 22 October, CLICKNL will be organising their Design Innovation Sessions: short, impactful sessions in which design, research and practice come together to address a different societal challenge.

On Wednesday 21 October, the session Digital Futures: The AI We Choose will take place.

AI & creativity

Generative AI can write, design, and create in seconds, but does that make it creative, and who actually benefits? This session digs into the tensions GenAI brings to the creative industries. What happens if AI development stays profit-driven, and what would it take for the creative industries to actively shape their own future instead? From measuring machine creativity to safeguarding human work: we’re here to sharpen the thinking.

Meet the speakers

The keynote speech will be given by Kars Alfrink (TU Delft). Other speakers include Monika Kackovic and Ana Oprescu (SafeGenAI research project), Daniëlle Arets (Lowres Creative Studio) and Jop Quirindongo (Lowres Creative Studio, Dutch Digital Design and BNO). Dymphie Braun will moderate the session. Together, they will share different perspectives on the role of AI within the creative industry and the development of responsible AI.
