A lecture by Matt Jones

Generative systems now produce text, music and design with ease, yet they sample vast latent spaces without intention or risk. This lecture reframes AI not as a creator, but as a provocateur that disrupts habits and surfaces possibility. Creativity remains embodied and accountable; we ask who retains authorship and who answers for what is made.
