Integrating artificial intelligence

Supporting cultural, educational and social-sector teams and institutions in the critical and creative appropriation of artificial intelligence: professional uses, governance, creation, critical thinking.

Integrating artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence has entered your organisation without being invited: some people already use it, others refuse it, and no common position exists. You have to decide what your organisation does with it, says about it and passes on, without giving in to either excitement or panic.

The support works through practice. Your teams handle the tools instead of listening to a lecture, and come out able to make real, reasoned professional use of them. On that basis, an institutional position is built collectively: a framework for use, governance, a discourse towards your audiences. Organisations that wish to can extend this work with creative and mediation programmes using AI, aimed at their audiences.

Benoît Labourdette has been designing and delivering projects with artificial intelligence since its public emergence, in creation, mediation and production, and facilitates monitoring committees on its stakes (creation, ethics, professions, education). This double position, practitioner and researcher, makes it possible to hold together the effectiveness of uses and the building of critical thinking, which are too often treated separately.

This work has unfolded, among other places, in the European expert committee on artificial intelligence, education and artistic creation of the Genshagen Foundation; the AI monitoring committee of the Forum des images; « CinémA.I » at the Studio 13-16 of the Centre Pompidou; Tumo x AI - Creative journeys into AI; « Fabriquer les récits de la culture avec l’intelligence artificielle », a training day for a local authority’s cultural department; and « Intelligence artificielle et création : enjeux et pratiques ».
