November 30, 2023

As part of MIT Generative AI Week, the Media Lab hosted a session on AI + Creativity on November 30, 2023.

MIT Generative AI Week reflects the conviction that MIT has a special responsibility to help society come to grips with the tectonic forces of generative AI—to understand its potential, contain its risks, and harness its power for good. The objective is to spotlight the insights of MIT researchers, stimulate thoughtful analysis, and engage in critical dialogues on the implications and possibilities of generative AI in the ever-shifting landscape.
