Whether you’re a fan of artificial intelligence or not, AI generated content is a hot topic. With generative AI becoming increasingly more popular in everyday lives, where do we draw the line? AI generated art, music, films, and even actors have been making headlines, and we want to hear from our local community about whether it’s a useful tool, the end of art as we know it, or somewhere in between. Join us to experience some AI content on the big screen and a community discussion about the evolving technology and its effects in the arts. This event is free to the public, but you must reserve a ticket to ensure you will have a seat. The screening will take place in Theater 1, RFC’s 124-seat capacity theater, followed by a discussion led by filmmaker and RFC Director of Education, Rich Hansil.
