Can collective governance be a way to build more supportive structures for AI projects?
This event presents and introduces the Choral AI Data Trust Experiment conducted by Serpentine Arts Technologies alongside the production of Holly Herndon and Mat Dryhurst’s exhibition ‘The Call’. It sets out how the making of the exhibition and the experiment envisions protocols for creating AI models differently.
The event was hosted by Science Gallery London at King’s College London and supported by BRAID, an AHRC funded programme dedicated to integrating arts and humanities research more fully into the responsible AI ecosystem, as well as bridging the divides between academic, industry, policy and regulatory work on responsible AI.
