WE’RE A GLOBAL COMMUNITY CONDUCTING CRITICAL AI RESEARCH FOR THE BENEFIT OF PEOPLE, NOT PROFITS

We host events, run community-led research projects, and make public resources to democratize AI literacy and critical discourse, practice critical & creative thinking, and research and prototype new ways of being in relation to AI and technology.

Fabian Mosele leading wonderful workshop Animating AI characters, you can see him overseeing five computer curious people with their laptops in front of them. They have mostly apple computers, you know.

Activists, researchers, data scientists, creative technologists, artists and designers as imagined by Dall-e.

Nadia Piet is explaining something about AI and design to two men in black. Literally, they are both wearing black tops.

Pages of Story&Code report flashing in a speed of almost light.

Our Team

We are community-led, independent / DIY, and largely volunteer-run organization. At this moment in time, our core team exists of 4 people, each whose hours are 1/3th of paid time and the other out of love.

ORIGIN STORY

Back in 2018, there were designers & artists sprinkled around the world - scrolling through dev repos, experimenting with AI, questioning algorithmic affordances, not knowing there were others like them.

When Nadia Piet launched the AI meets Design toolkit, it served as bat signal for this community which evolved over the years to come

In 5 years, we have grown from a Slack group to a self-organised global community of 8,000+ computationally-curious people.

Today, we remain an independent community, working in the open, dedicated to conducting critical AI design research for people (not profit).
