"A.I.-Generated Art Is Already Transforming Creative Work" (2022) "Only a few months old, apps like DALL-E 2, Midjourney and Stable Diffusion are changing how filmmakers, interior designers and other creative professionals do their jobs."
"A Coming-Out Party for Generative A.I., Silicon Valley’s New Craze" "A celebration for Stability AI, the start-up behind the controversial Stable Diffusion image generator, represents the arrival of a new A.I. boom."
"An A.I.-Generated Picture Won an Art Prize. Artists Aren’t Happy" (2022) (Intro) "This year, the Colorado State Fair’s annual art competition gave out prizes in all the usual categories: painting, quilting, sculpture. But one entrant, Jason M. Allen of Pueblo West, Colo., didn’t make his entry with a brush or a lump of clay. He created it with Midjourney, an artificial intelligence program that turns lines of text into hyper-realistic graphics. Mr. Allen’s work, “Théâtre D’opéra Spatial,” took home the blue ribbon in the fair’s contest for emerging digital artists — making it one of the first A.I.-generated pieces to win such a prize, and setting off a fierce backlash from artists who accused him of, essentially, cheating."
"A ‘Virtual Rapper’ Was Fired. Questions About Art and Tech Remain" "oung people are increasingly at ease consuming culture via digital avatars or made with artificial intelligence. Should the same moral guidelines and laws apply to those works?"
"Meet DALL-E, the A.I. That Draws Anything at Your Command" "New technology that blends language and images could serve graphic artists — and speed disinformation campaigns."
"Music, Science and Healing Intersect in an A.I. Opera" (2022) (Intro) "“This is what your brain was doing!” a Lincoln Center staffer said to Shanta Thake, the performing arts complex’s artistic director, while swiping through some freshly taken photos. It was the end of a recent rehearsal at Alice Tully Hall for “Song of the Ambassadors,” a work-in-progress that fuses elements of traditional opera with artificial intelligence and neuroscience, and the photos did appear to show Thake’s brain doing something remarkable: generating images of flowers. Bright, colorful, fantastical flowers of no known species or genus, morphing continuously in size, color and shape, as if botany and fluid dynamics had somehow merged."

Carnagie Mellon University "Artistic Intelligence: CMU Leads a New Renaissance" "Artificial Intelligence has entered the art space. AI has been used to create paintings, music, literature and poetry to name a few disciplines. The use of algorithms in the creation of artwork raises tricky questions in the art world, possibly creating new gray areas in ownership and intellectual property. "The person who creates an algorithm owns the algorithm. If the algorithm is critical to the creation of the art — and the artist is a separate person — there's shared ownership that needs to be figured out," said Brett Ashley Crawford, professor of arts management at the Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy and director of the Arts Management and Technology Laboratory (AMT Lab) at Carnegie Mellon University."

"1 million US jobs will vanish by 2026. Here's How to Prepare Workers for an Automated Future" (2018) (Intro) "Technology is transforming virtually every job in every industry. Nearly 1 million Americans will see their occupations vanish entirely by 2026. We need to find ways to help them develop new skills to meet the demands of the marketplace and find equally paid work."
