"It’s not that OpenAI picked something cute and accidentally the co-founder of that studio hates. OAI picked Ghibli because Miyazaki hates their approach

It is display of power: You, as artist, animator, illustrator, writer are powerless. We will take what we want & do what we want. Because we can"

This week I had the great pleasure of joining the course on "AI Powered Design" led by @marihum.bsky.social , at Politecnico di Milano, and sharing a bit of my critical concerns around AI & Robotics. I also took the chance to celebrate my 10 years in academia and shared a bit of old pieces!

My project "Participatory Design Justice for Ethical AI Transitions" has just been awarded 1.3 M € by MUR.
Soon, I'll be hiring 6 PhD students in the space of #designresearch, #HCI, #socialjustice, #participatoryAI, and #explainability. Send good people my way! ✨

Prompting AI to animate an illustration of mine. Not sure how to interpret this 😅

Just to be sure I don't get to confident in life, today I gave a talk at an architecture event here in Turin. I talked about Design & AI, around tractors, window frames and white collars. I am not sure I won them with my oyster mushrooms chair.
