About this event

Join Hugh Lane Gallery for a Saturday afternoon talk, as part of a series of talks in tandem with the exhibition Ailbhe Ní Bhriain: The Dream Pool Intervals; programmed with curator Sara Muthi.

Since 2023 the craze for AI art has meant that people who’d never picked up a paintbrush could create ‘masterpieces’. ‘Outpainting’ apps extend classic paintings, hallucinating contemporary contexts for the most well-known pieces. But how does AI ‘art’ work? Where does AI ‘get its ideas from’. And why does it matter?

Free talk from Joanne Walsh, a multidisciplinary writer for print, digital and performance.
