Slow AI: Seeding alternative AI narratives

Inspired by the counter-movements of slow fashion and slow food, our project Slow AI: Seeding alternative AI narratives investigates three emerging AI counter-narratives –Small AI 🐜, Ancestral AI 🐚, and Esoteric AI 🔮 – and explores what it might look like to incorporate them in our everyday practice.

We will interrogate and publish critical AI discourse in a format that makes sense to us and our practices, like community zines and interactive installations, and at project end we will publish an anthology – a hot compost pile of miro boards, zines, and art that we hope sparks new ways to think and talk about AI.
