A Parsons student downloaded 70,000 lines of her own data, fed it to AI, and asked what it knew about her. The answer described her with unsettling accuracy.

To explore this topic further, and what creativity means in the age of AI, students, faculty, and industry voices gathered for a symposium, a hands-on Creative AI Lab and a final exhibition at @thenewschool.
AI is moving faster than the questions around it. Who gets credit? What's ethical? What does it mean to make something? In a partnership between Adobe and The New School, we asked students and faculty to sit with those questions.
Like Julienne DeVita, adjunct professor at Parsons, said: "The future of creativity is not generated; it needs to be consciously shaped through critical collaboration between humans and artificial partners."
