Textile Talks: Fiber Artists vs Artificial Intelligence - What We Know That It Doesn’t, presented by Surface Design Association
Presented by the Surface Design Association, "What do fiber art and Artificial Intelligence have in common? More than many people—including most computer scientists—realize. String, the earliest fiber technology, is 50,000 years old, and fiber has informed myriad technologies since, especially digital computing. Looking toward our digital future, we will use case studies of our own experiences, primarily in quilting and crochet, to address the potentials and limitations of the impact of Generative AI with large language models (LLMs) on fiber arts design and production."
