  • AI and Impro with Piotr Mirowski
    Apr 23 2024
    How can AI play with Improvisation? What is it like to create shows with AI? What are the joyous moments that this unlikely partnership creates? Join Em as she chats to Piotr one of the creators of Improbotics (A show Em guest performs with) We chat this and how the technology is developing to create even more amazing theatre Follow Piotr: Facebook: ImproboticsLtd  Instagram: improbotics    LinkedIn: Piotr Mirowski    Twitter: Improbotics     About Piotr Mirowski: Since 2016, we have been pioneering improvised theater and comedy with the most unlikely cast member, a robot powered by artificial intelligence. We performed around 300 shows in the UK, Canada, Sweden, Belgium, US, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Belgium, Bulgaria, Romania, most times in person and sometimes online in a virtual reality environment designed by ourselves. We also addressed the thorny issues of risks from AI, ranging from the most hyped and apocalyptic ones, to the actual ones that involve the propagation of fake news, reinforcement of existing biases, and consequences for artistic agency and ownership. We have made our AI ourselves, and we regularly publish academic research on how humans interact with computers. Our shows are a form of public engagement about science but also a celebration of maker culture fused with making things up in improv. We illustrate a new, play for and I'm powering use of AI as a tool to stimulate human creativity and simply to have a lot of fun and silliness on a theatre stage.
