AI Agents is a podcast representing a collaboration between the Sia Furler Institute and The Australian Institute for Machine Learning at the University of Adelaide as a part of the Art Intelligence Agency. Through conversational interviews, the podcast explores the intersections of contemporary art and artificial intelligence with a distinct focus on how this relates to human creativity. Hosted by Tim Whiffen of Whimsy Productions, this podcast represents the work of many respected contributors to the Art and AI fields. The possibilities of AI stretch beyond imagination, and yet are limited by the lack of inbuilt imaginative consciousness in machine learning. Follow the series as it distinguishes the prospects from the constraints of this modern technology. Upcoming interviews include creatives, stakeholders, and academics in the fields of philosophy, physiology, art, information technology, and music.

Ep 3: Agent Jon McCormack - The Great Partnership between Human and Machine

Professor Jon McCormack of Monash University joins the Art Intelligence Agency to discuss the considerations of pairing human creative endeavours with the strict logic of computer technology. Jon's understanding of art and science give him great insight into the relationship humans have with computers. With AI being incorporated into more creative tools and forming the modern zeitgeist, why should humans care? What about these new technologies appeals to creatives and engineers and what is yet to come? Jon's experience directing Sensilab make for a perfect platform to leap from as this podcast explores the nexus between creativity and machine learning.

This Podcast was Produced by Tim Whiffen of Whimsy Productions in Association with the Art Intelligence Agency, the Australian Institute for Machine Learning, and the Sia Furler Institute of the University of Adelaide.
