At the Generative AI + Creativity Symposium, faculty experts, researchers, and students from all over MIT looked at questions about what might happen in the future if generative AI-enhanced systems and methods made life better for people.
The study looked at how a combination of human and AI systems might be able to make better and more creative decisions than either one on its own; how a new generation of tools, methods, and experiences that encourage lifelong creativity can benefit society; imagining, investigating, and executing a more upbeat, guileful, significant, and fair future; step by step instructions to make artificial intelligence clear and reliable; furthermore, how to draw in an exceptional blend of different partners to motivate and uphold imaginative reasoning, articulation, and calculation enabling all individuals.
The half-day discussion was co-led by Dava Newman, the Apollo Program Teacher of Astronautics and overseer of the MIT Media Lab, and John Ochsendorf, the Class of 1942 Teacher, teacher of engineering and of common and natural designing, and establishing head of the MIT Morningside Foundation for Plan.
