Art and Culture in the Age of AI - Anna Goldsworthy & Toby Walsh at Sydney Writers' Festival

Technology is supposed to make our lives easier, but it seems that every advancement in AI disconnects us further from our core qualities of creativity, humanity and empathy.

In this panel discussion, writer Anna Goldsworthy, author of the Quarterly Essay: On AI, self and culture, critic and author of Brave New Wild Richard King and Booker Prize–shortlisted author Steve Toltz, whose new novel A Rising of the Lights sees a man grappling with loneliness in a tech-dominated world, discuss the impact of AI on literature and culture.

Join Anna, Richard and Steve as they investigate how AI impacts our our ability to create and connect, in conversation with AI expert Toby Walsh.
