Unlocking the Ethical Aspects of AI
for Museums

Are you worried or excited about the impact of AI in the museum world? Do you envision a future where technology and ethics seamlessly intersect, enriching cultural experiences for all? Or is your institution fearful of losing control in such a fast moving world? In both cases our workshop on "Ethics and AI for Museums" is for you!

 About the Workshop 

We at InvisibleStudio have been at the forefront of digital innovation for museums since 1995 and we conducted the first experiments with AI in 2003.

The recent explosion in generative AI means that museums have to quickly adapt to the new landscape and understand how to make the most of it ethically. To help museums in doing so we have partnered with two leading institutions, the Goldsmiths University in London and IULM AI Lab in Milan.

Together we designed
 a groundbreaking workshop focused on navigating the ethical landscape of AI in museums.
This hands-on event brings together museums, university researchers and private companies to explore the responsible integration of AI technologies in cultural institutions.
