An introduction on how to (and how not to) use generative artificial intelligence (AI) to create media. This course explores the roots of creativity, art, and the relationship of technology to culture and expression. Focus is placed on learning how generative AI works, how it is constructed, how it produces what it does, and what opportunities and limitations it brings. Students will use generative AI as a tool to explore creative self-expression to communicate ideas across media, and explore the use of creative tools through time, from the canvas to the printing press, to film and recording devices, and now the computer and AI. The course will also cover problems related to AI, including cultural bias, race, power, and questions of safety. Students will get hands-on experience with various tools of generative AI, receive demonstrations of how artists are using them, and hear from expert guests.
