Robb and Josh have a philosophical conversation about art, creativity, and perception with Laura Herman, researcher at the University of Oxford’s Oxford Internet Institute. As a tool for creating, generative AI is changing the way we think about art what constitutes artistry. The artistic process will always require human hands and human input, as a piece of art isn’t really finished until someone experiences it. Covering synesthesia, UX research, and possible outcomes for the heightened levels of technology intertwined in our daily lives, this discussion provides ample food for thought.
