Please note: this session is in Dutch.
This is one of the sessions organised on Friday evening, 9 October, by the Dutch Research Agenda project InDeep, which focuses on responsible artificial intelligence (AI). Between 17:00 and 20:00, be inspired by one of five sessions exploring the question: What if we want to remain in control of AI?
Moving beyond the hype and headlines, experts, artists, and visitors will explore the intellectual, ethical, and artistic dimensions of AI together. How can citizens regain greater control over these technological developments?
Choose from five thought-provoking sessions, experience AI demonstrations in collaboration with the Amsterdam Data Science Centre, and join the conversation about the future of AI. The evening concludes with drinks and bites.
John Ashley Burgoyne is Assistant Professor in Computational Musicology at the University of Amsterdam, Director of the Amsterdam Music Lab, and a member of the InDeep research group. In his research, he combines corpus analysis, psychological measurements, and AI representation-learning methods to enable machines to listen to music more as humans do – and, at times, humans more as machines do. He is currently investigating new algorithms designed to ensure that artists are fairly remunerated when their music is used in generative AI applications.
