Design & AI Symposium 2023
October 18, 2023 - 13:00 - October 19, 2023 - 17:30
We invite you to the 2023 Design & AI Symposium where we are asking: How are designers shaping possible futures? The symposium will be held on the campus of TU Delft and is presented by the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering. At this event, you’ll be able to join fellow designers and businesses to explore the intersection of design and the future of AI.
AI has captured the imagination of the public, science and industry, but it also poses new risks and potentials that are reshaping human relationships with technology, labor, creativity, and the environment. Can design help ensure that these systems are practical, just, sustainable and used for the benefit of society?
