Computer vision technologies like generative image models are rapidly being integrated into creative domains to, for example, aid in artistic content retrieval and curation, generate synthetic media, or enable new forms of artistic methods and creations. However, creative AI technologies bring with them a host of ethical concerns, ranging from representational harms associated culturally sensitive matter to impact on artistic practices and copyright and ownership concerns. In particular, it is unclear what kinds of performance failures and biases these models bring when deployed in cross-cultural and non-western settings.
We encourage retrospective discussions, position papers examining the cross-cultural and social impacts of creative applications of computer vision, ethical considerations in this domain including but not limited to artwork attributions, inequity in cultural performance, cultural appropriation, environmental impacts of generative arts, biases embedded in generative arts, dynamics of art marketplaces/platforms, and policy perspectives on creative AI.
Our aim is to create a platform for interdisciplinary discussions on these issues among computer vision researchers, socio-technical researchers, policy makers, social scientists, artists, and other cultural stakeholders. This year our Generative Art Demo will invite artists to use computer vision technologies to create art pieces that center questions and topics of cultural significance and create space for collective reflections on the role of AI art especially within non-western communities.

Keynote Panel
(
Discussion Panel
)
An interdisciplinary panel that looks at questions of cultural inclusion, cultural representation and cultural impact with regards to generative image technologies. ML experts, AI artists and critical media scholars will discuss whether current generative models can (or should) become more inclusive of global populations and how researchers and practitioners should think about the cultural impact of these technologies. |

Generative Art Demo
(
Discussion Panel
)
This session places images generated with AI technologies in conversation with histories of Afro-futuristic storytelling, reflecting on traditions of computer art and digital art within the African context. Dilman Dila, a Ugandan filmmaker, and Tong Wu, a creative technologist, show us how they use generative image technologies for creating culturally-situated characters for Dilman’s forthcoming film. This demo will be followed by a conversation between artists and art curators to discuss the possibilities and limitations of technology to be used for democratizing art, and telling progressive stories rooted in Afro-futuristic traditions. |
