Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a big part of our ever-changing world, but it isn't going to replace artists or designers. Join us as we talk to RISD Professor Clement Valla about how AI can bea useful tool that will enable image-making and storytelling, how the critical thinking skills that RISD students cultivate will always be relevant, and what our new Computation, Technology and Culture department is bringing to our creative community and beyond.
