The discourse concerning Artificial Intelligence in the realm of Indigenous fashion revolves around the role of AI as either a creative ally or a social risk. AI offers exciting prospects for Indigenous artists and designers, aiding in documenting cultural expressions and traditional knowledge, intergenerational exchange, expanding market reach through virtual assistance, and optimizing design processes. Nonetheless, there are concerns regarding AI's potential for inaccuracies, (mis)appropriation, misrepresentation, data privacy, and accessibility issues. This panel explores potential benefits and dangers in forging pathways for Indigenous fashion in AI, considering technology inclusivity, and guiding ethical AI integration.
This event is FREE. A ticket is required for entry.
Please arrive at least 30 minutes before the start time. General seating only.
