The topic of this year's DocNet Symposium is 'ARTificial Intelligence – Arts in the Age of AI'. In an era in which machines compose, paint, and write, the line between human and artificial creativity is steadily blurring, along with the complex questions it raises.
What counts as art? Who is the author? And what remains uniquely human?
The Symposium convenes leading voices from the arts, science, law, and industry to explore both the promise and the pitfalls of creativity in the age of intelligent machines.
