About this event
AI generates text, music and design—but is it creative? This lecture reframes AI as a provocateur, and asks who retains authorship. Generative systems now produce text, music and design with ease, yet they sample vast latent spaces without intention or risk. This lecture reframes AI not as a creator, but as a provocateur that disrupts habits and surfaces possibility. Creativity remains embodied and accountable; we ask who retains authorship and who answers for what is made. A lecture by Professor Matt Jones This event is also available to watch live online.

Traditions this room works in
Tags on the venue. Other London rooms carry the same lineage. Not a claim that this film invented the tradition.
Also playing this week
Same kind of night (talks) in London. Spread across the week, not a ranking.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
