FUTURE TALK: CLIMATE X CHANGE. Climate, Art & Artificial Intelligence

The interdisciplinary series Future Talk: Climate X Change at KunstHausWien is dedicated to the demands of the Fridays for Future movement and examines relevant topics in the context of the climate crisis.
The British thinker and utopian James Lovelock saw the end of the human-centred Anthropocene and prophesied a new geological epoch, the Novocene, an age of hyperintelligence, no longer dominated by humans alone, but by artificial intelligence and advanced technology. But can such a change in perspective help save our planet? Experts from the fields of science, art and activism discuss the possibilities and limits of artificial intelligence as a climate protection measure. How can the use of AI help us tackle the climate crisis when its energy needs are actively contributing to it?

The talk is part of the exhibition The End Is Where We Start From by Anne Duk Hee Jordan. Experts from art, science and activism will discuss the future of our climate.
