Program Description
Open Call: The Democratization of Artificial Intelligence via Blockchain ThoughtWorks Arts is exploring SingularityNET’s vision — of democratizing access to and ownership of artificial intelligence — as a resource for inquiry. We are looking for innovative artistic approaches to these challenges, including, but not limited to, emerging relationships between AI, blockchain, open source and global control that will result in a unique artwork. In partnership with Snark.art, a developer of blockchain for art, ThoughtWorks Arts seeks artists to deeply investigate alternative routes to monopolistic AI practices that effectively lock out and disempower others. Logistics ThoughtWorks will provide a workspace, facilitation in downtown San Francisco, and access to guides and consultants, as well as appropriate resources as the project progresses. It does not provide housing or work visas, and is for the artist only. Image credit: [https://www.flickr.com/photos/122499633@N02/15754112251/]
