HER: Reality in Times of AI
Artificial intelligence is no longer a promise of the future—it has become part of everyday life. But how do different generations interpret this transformation? In this conversation, Giselle Beiguelman—artist, Full Professor at FAU-USP, and one of Brazil’s leading researchers in digital culture, memory, and image technologies—shares the stage with Catharina Doria, an AI ethics specialist, founder of The AI Survival Club, and one of Brazil’s most influential voices on artificial intelligence. Moderated by Olivia Merquior, the session brings together two complementary perspectives on one of the most pressing issues of our time. While Giselle, author of more than 200 publications on digital culture whose works are part of major international museum collections, has spent decades examining the impact of technology on art and society, Catharina—recognized in 2023 as one of the 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics—focuses on democratizing knowledge about artificial intelligence and fostering critical thinking around algorithmic systems. Together, they reflect on creativity, ethics, authorship, and the challenges artificial intelligence poses to contemporary culture, connecting different generations around the future of technology.
