Haymarket Books | A.I. and Creative Labor @HaymarketBooks | Uploaded September 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Join us for a live streamed session from the Socialism 2023 conference, in Chicago.
———————————————————————
The explosion of generative artificial intelligence in the last year has dizzying implications for the future of labor, culture, and the economy. Already it is being used as a tool to automate and further alienate aspects of creative production and has played a part in touching off at least one major labor action, the WGA Writers Strike. This talk will be a starting point in thinking about the theoretical and practical issues for socialists raised by A.I.

Speakers
Ben Davis is the author of Art in the After-Culture and 9.5 Theses on Art and Class, which ARTnews named one of the best art books of the decade in 2019. He has been Artnet News's National Art Critic since 2016.
