Description
This class will explore what it means to treat AI as a poison and cure. Students will learn about the structure of AI systems and methods of co-creating with them. Models from cultural practices of co-creation through interspecies consciousness will be presented alongside the hyperdimensional structures of neural net technology. Frameworks like biosemiosis and the "poison path" will be employed to construct metaphysics and poetics of AI in the Anthropocene, for use in creation. This class will examine what AI is and what it isn't, and how to use this knowledge to create new AI-human interspecies relations that address contemporary crises of civilization.
