Do we have to use the existing big tech tools? Can we build an ethical AI for the GLAM sector? Big questions being asked in the AI fireside chat at #NDF25

Slow AI Slow AI focuses on developing strategies to address colonial and extractive histories in current AI systems by introducing the concept of slowness to a fast technology.

Slow AI project in the Netherlands mentioned in the AI fireside chat at #NDF25 ariastest.humanities.uva.nl/projects/slo...

"We are now in an AI-age." Adrian Kingston encourages us to think about our role about making AI better. Can we help reduce the bias in big-AI, and improve the quality? GLAM has a role not just in consuming AI but also informing AI. #NDF25

The Lens was developed in partnership with Second Story, Swinburne University’s Centre for Design Innovation and Lumicom.

Now that we've experimented with AI, mostly online, really interested to see how it translates to exhibition. User experience. How does museum visitors feel about using AI?

#NDF25

Ravi Chandra of Dexibit discusses shifting mindsets - rethinking processes in terms of how AI can help. Early experimentation used AI as a tool for automation to learn what AI was good at (and what it wasn't). #NDF25
