Join us for an AI Image Speaker Series presentation from artist and Gates Scholar Eryk Salvaggio on his research on How to Read an AI Image.
Eryk Salvaggio is a researcher and artist interested in the social and cultural impacts of artificial intelligence. His work explores the creative misuse of AI and the transformation of archives into datasets for AI training: a practice designed to expose ideologies of tech and to confront the gaps between datasets and the worlds they claim to represent.
Eryk is a Gates Scholar at the University of Cambridge for a PhD in the Digital Humanities, examining the relationship between archival practices and generative AI.
