Since the emergence of the technological field in the 1950s, AI has continued to develop from a topic of artistic exploration to artistic tools. At the same time, artists working in all disciplines started to experiment with software and technology, build new prototypes, and initiate discussions challenging society and cultural institutions. They negotiate questions of authorship, responsibility, and autonomy through new concepts, (science) fiction, and art worlds oscillating between utopia and dystopia. What tools, environments, and mindsets are needed in cultural institutions to support such projects? What can we learn from young artists who experiment with AI and foster new ideas of patterns, narrations and approaches to a world with machines?
