This course explores AI not just as a tool, but as a force reshaping how creative work is made, shared, and valued. Through hands-on, studio-based workshops, you’ll experiment with AI systems by working directly with data, prompts, and feedback—learning how these systems behave, where they break down, and how they can be pushed in new directions. No coding background is required. Readings, lectures, and discussions will trace the history of AI and examine its impact on creative practice, labor, and authorship. Along the way, you’ll critically consider ethical issues while redesigning creative processes through AI. By the end of the course, you’ll have developed AI-driven work and a framework for integrating these tools into your own evolving practice, equipping you to navigate and shape the future of creative work.
