Klara Källström and Thobias Fäldt’s artistry examines paradigmatic changes in society, media issues and the power of images. A phenomenon that can be linked to all these areas, and which is being talked about with increasing frequency today, is AI-generated images.

The rapid development and spread of AI images worries and fascinates us, and the phenomenon brings us both new opportunities, challenges and risks. Together with Niclas Östlind, PhD in photography, Linus Larsson, journalist and writer, and Hanifeh Khayyeri, Vice President of Computer Science at RISE, we take a closer look the phenomenon from different perspectives. We explore the borders between creativity and technology as we talk about this new type of images and its importance in society. The conversation is led by Anna Davour, physicist and science journalist.
