She believes that future generations will naturally integrate AI into their creative processes, and that artists can play a crucial role in shaping the visual and cultural narratives surrounding AI. However, she also highlights the limitations of current AI models, which are trained on homogeneous data sets and may perpetuate biases.
Throughout the discussion, Bryan emphasizes the need for a multidisciplinary approach to AI, involving experts from various fields, including art, philosophy, neuroscience, and ethics.

Key Episodes Takeaways
- AI has the potential to reshape the art world and the creative process, but it's crucial to involve diverse perspectives, including artists and philosophers, to address ethical concerns.
- Current AI models and data sets are limited by homogeneous data and lack of diverse perspectives, which can perpetuate biases and lead to unpredictable outcomes.
- Future generations of artists will likely integrate AI into their creative processes, but there is a need to balance the use of technology with maintaining the integrity of art disciplines.
- AI could potentially develop consciousness or sentience, which would necessitate discussions around ethical use, labor rights, and the ability for AI systems to refuse certain tasks or collaborations.
- Artists can play a crucial role in shaping the visual and cultural narratives surrounding AI, and in exploring the intersection of art, technology, and human consciousness.
- A multidisciplinary approach involving experts from various fields, including art, philosophy, neuroscience, and ethics, is essential for navigating the complexities and ethical implications of AI.
- Organizations and individuals should experiment with AI while remaining mindful of its potential risks and ethical implications, and strive to create landscapes that foster creativity and innovation.
- Regulation and ethical frameworks are needed to address the challenges posed by AI, such as privacy concerns, manipulation of human behavior, and environmental impact.
Top Episodes Quotes
- “We need philosophers and poets and philosophers and poets, I think, are the perfectly suited for AI, artistry, cocreation, because there is that linguistic element and then the poetic element of surprise, where you can guide, but you also leave room and you hold space for that surprise to come through.“ by Mariam Bryan
- “There's a slide that I use in my presentations that I think I can describe for you. We have the globe and we're operating. And this is why we have black swan events. This is why we have stock market crashes where we can't predict.“ by Mariam Bryan
- “I think there are artists who embrace it, there are artists who are still on the fence. And all of it, to me, becomes irrelevant when we think about our emerging global markets, open source creativity, creative commons, cities like Shenzhen in China, where you have exponential innovation as a result of open structure, and then you have regulatory bodies elsewhere.“ by Mariam Bryan
- “I see us going is that once we develop a definition of the hard problem of consciousness of sentience, AI will also need to look at ethical use, labor rights. There will be an opportunity for AI to have input as a collaborator who can also say, no.“ by Mariam Bryan
