Culture & Code explores Human Creativity and Artificial Intelligence. What is it? What does it mean?

In August 2023, Culture & Code launched with a manifesto declaring AI as a new creative medium. Two years later, we examine what predictions came true and what surprised us. Drawing parallels between AI creativity and the underground music scenes that birthed hip-hop and electronic music, we explore why AI storytelling feels like punk rock—raw, accessible, hated by establishments, and unstoppable. We dive into the concept of "creative democracy," the hard truth that democratizing creation doesn't guarantee audiences, and why the real scarcity in AI media is taste, trust, and community. Plus insights on building creative scenes through the Seattle AI Film Festival and practical advice for creators and organizations navigating this technological shift.
