2024 Theme: Sustainability and politics of AI
As AI technologies evolve at an unprecedented pace, it's crucial to
understand their long-term impact on sustainability and political
matters to ensure they benefit society as a whole. Since AI has the
power to reshape industries, economies, culture, and social structures,
integrating sustainability and ethical governance into the core of AI
development and implementation is essential. The DAHSS24 framework will
explore key issues, including the cultural and environmental impact of
AI technologies, ethical considerations in AI development, and the
governance frameworks required to regulate these advancements.
Consequently, the DAHSS24 will focus on the pivotal question: How can AI
be governed globally to enhance transparency, sustainability, fairness,
and accountability? Additionally, it will examine how the fields of
Digital Art History and Digital Humanities at large can contribute to
these objectives. The sessions aim to stimulate insightful discussions
and provide critical insights while participants learn technical skills
and discuss computational methodologies. By the end of this workshop,
participants will gain a deeper understanding of the complex interplay
between technology, sustainability and politics, and be equipped with
the knowledge to advocate for responsible AI development.
The course is organized around tracks. Each participant can only join
one of the tracks. During your application, you should select the tracks
in your preferred order.
Track A: Visual AI for Visual Culture
Track B: Art on the Web: Creating Cultural Heritage Knowledge Networks
Track C: Cartographies of Humanities
Track D: The Archive Makes the Image
Plenary Sessions
No matter what track you pick, you will also see what students do in
other tracks in our daily plenary session. In the plenary sessions,
notable alumni of the DAHSS program will also share feedback and
observations about how DAHSS helped them in their work.
