AI Resourcesfor Arts Marketers

People are desperate for more time and support. And they do see AI as a potential solution, but they’re also holding these real concerns about what makes arts human. So there’s a tension that we have to navigate about getting the most value out of something, but also being true to your values and your mission.

I have been sitting in so many rooms recently where there is so much doom and gloom and sadness, about the world. And at risk of the unpopular opinion, I am just delighted by the rapid iteration conversations that I can have when it comes to collaborating with folks who don’t think visually the same way I do. This is letting our designers and artists move into a space of collaboration with clients who genuinely want to be creative but just have an entirely language, and it is deeply exciting.

Language matters. Sequence matters. And passive versus active voice. So, you know, this kid lost their job to AI. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We are already lying through omission and poor construction. We are not saying the most accurate, most truthful version of what is happening here, which is that an administrator decided to deploy a system to outsource decision making from humans to that system. Now we can have a useful conversation as opposed to be distracted with turning humans against machines, which is the ultimate divide and conquer.”

For such a long time, we’ve, we’ve been constructing a lot of our educational, and I would argue our, economic system around the value of knowledge, efficiency, productivity, and now we’re developing machines that can perform these sophisticated tasks in those areas. So, what’s left? My hope is that this moment we’re having in AI becomes a moment when we finally recognize the extraordinary value of human intelligence in all of its forms. And that could create a really remarkable opportunity for the arts if we are ready to use a shared language to talk about that.
