Ep 2: Agent Jon Opie & Agent Ben Lancer - What Makes a Creative Mind a Mind at All?
Description
Dr Jonathan Opie and Benjamin Lancer join the Art Intelligence Agency to dispense their collective expertise on how machines can resemble organic intelligence. While machines have been able to solve the traveling salesman problem for decades, mould has been able to solve it for millions of years. If humans are capable of imagination and creativity, AI has a long way to catch up with evolved brains. So are machines capable of creativity? And are humans even capable of 'new' thoughts? This episode discusses the human (organic) brain and consciousness, and how we can model and compare artificial intelligence to gain insight on artistic machines now, and in the future.
