The War on and for Art, AI and Mass Protest (Content Minded Ep.114).

Content Minded Podcast

About

On this episode of Content Minded, I dive into the recent debate over AI art and the question of authenticity and art’s humanly quality, what is motivating a new moral panic over AI art, what this means for art’s future and what can guarantee it’s worth, the metaphysics of autonomous AI generated images, and how AI generated imagery is influencing art, culture and global politics. I also cover an essay from Boris Groy’s book “In The Flow” about the social role of art in the 21st century, and in the full version of this episode I cover the recent riots in France, the burning of Limoges tower and the numerous artworks inside, and the debate over art’s destruction justified by contemporary political causes.
