or machine learning to put it more precisely as a kind of sparring partner is one of our bearings partner. the partner that helps in the composition process and reacts to suggestions. for 9 years. musician ali nick ryan has been developing a program to write sophisticated compositions. was this written by a man or a machine? it's impossible to tell he's big breakthrough came with a program which can compose pieces in the style of everything from mozart, to show and streaming. listen to a piece of music that is accomplished by an ai since it is able to get much more responsive because of the exactly not, i suppose, not understanding of our emotions. classical pianist, glenn gould performances were emotional and unconventional,

though he died in 1902. his style is still alive and well thanks to ai so what we're doing is we're analyzing, going god's audio recordings to see out here interpret a given piece of music and try to teach to an ai system so that i could play an expressive style of bringing going back life, it's as if glen gold's ghost is sitting at the piano. those who knew him a star christian knows or doesn't just want to imitate human creations. he wants to explore unknown to mentions through his art. with the help from ai, he's collected some other will be signals

on this one become very rich as we take this great unknown outer space and we try to capture radio signals from space. and then we have our man made a scan it to look for patterns which we wouldn't be able to find on our own. 2 feet in transcriptions from space interpreted by an ai using familiar harmonies. it's a bit but a bit bizarre. yet somehow sublime. when you kind of you enter a question and you get a reply, you never would have anticipated that can move things forward in the composition or creative work which allows it to take

a turn you simply couldn't predict up. and that's this, that's quite exciting, that's out of the such fun machines are becoming increasingly able to adapt, learn, and create original, unpredictable outputs. how would you say this, mpeg society today, ai looks like this magical black box that has new things that we've never seen before. and also maybe we, we ascribe too much power to these things that are influencing us as well. so now we just think of all these algorithms that are manipulating us in so many ways. and the truth is, we don't really know the extent to which this many pollution works. we don't have like a very solid scientific basis about how much really, how much power these things have over us. what do you think the top dangers are into creating a i enter our lives. having

a small group of people have more not political power over here i. so if you think of today, we have very few companies that have this proportionate power over our data. if this data is paid to ai's, that can then have a say or can make decisions that impact us and society as a whole, then we're in trouble because then we're in a tyrannical situation. and i think that's a problem that we don't have really transparency about which data can be owned by whom can be used by whom to what and and this is not always part of a clear, transparent discussion. what role do you think art can play in those debates? i think are going to be really powerful because it can help us imagine both the good and the bad as artists can translate the technology and the unknown into something that our imagination can,

can deal with. and that we can connect with on an emotional level and intellectual . and so i just have, i think, a great role to play an art act as a mediator between the real world and digital reality. it's as if we're living in 2 worlds at the same time. in one that is visible in which we can take a train, go shopping, meet other people, and another in which we are monitored and algorithms make decisions for us. artificial intelligence systems collect data and arrange the world who profits who loses out. imagine you're walking down a street and if you're an older woman, you know, you only see certain stores and certain options businesses. but if you're

a younger man, you see lots of totally different street, and that's very much what i was, you know, having nightmares about, you know, that the street that i would walk down as a black woman in germany might be entirely different than the street that you know, friends, family members are able to walk down because they're male because why? because they're not me. what can our do to fight discrimination? what role can it play? disc out? i think that has a great strength. it can make things accessible. i think that it's extremely important because our society is so influenced by artificial intelligence. now, people are being marginalized by these technologies and we have to speak about it. dani and the kima stuff are 2 researchers and artists based in berlin, who are exploring the question of why the world remains. so one just although there is so much artificial intelligence here there in berlin's future. a space where the

future of the planet and humanity is explored. this is a world increasingly dominated by machines and algorithms that are discriminatory. says that ai is intertwined with racism and sexism. that after that, the data that the systems used from the past said they're actually quite conservative systems in a sense from under the top when they're used to predict, to recommend, to underscore what to expect in the future. it's very unrealistic to expect them to be more egalitarian or fair, or anything different than the data that it's using as a basis. i have fashion her some time with no one insight joy ball. my name is a gun in american computer,

scientist and artist. she started fighting bias in algorithms after realizing that i did not recognize her face unless she wore a white mask. the more she delved into the issue, the more she understood that it was a structural problem. ai systems do not work with black people, particularly black women so joy, when he's gender shapes project, is really how i started to understand that this is a whole body of research that's been done. if you're not convinced that you have a representative data set of the various possibilities for diversity in the world, then you're probably not going to have a very fair or a very expansive assessment by an algorithm of who is legitimate person, who is a person at all who is considered an individual who has access to social participation,

who has positions of power for ai systems fed with data from the past. the answer is often white men. some of them cannot even attribute the right sex to women. still, obama, i know that in honor of rape, where her down of his her crown seems. i miss the systems. i'm sure of her hair, a wig of the fart, a toupee, maybe not. are there no words for brains? and i have lots of those relaxed hair and so nice big brown 1st lady, even birthdays. well, now some algorithms falter and when sentiments that strong women are men, i think that what artists an artistic creators can do is help us to see and feel what the experience of being marginalized looks like. and to help us understand, before we get so far that we discover this is happy to us what it is that we're doing by excluding certain people by creating artificial barriers that are not mediated by human contact. some video artists have started using ai and virtual

reality themselves to offer a response. the neuroscientist ashley baucus clark has created an installation with hyphen labs, which puts users in the body of a black woman at a hair salon. and many of these projects are about taking back the power of content protection, showing everything from our perspective. what do we really associate with ai? ashley and typhon labs is showing that vision of a future, a very community based future. a future without discrimination and stereotypes can artificial intelligence help to make the world a better place. i don't think that we should be working to ai to make the world together scary, and this is something where he might be exacerbating some of the more undesirable

aspects of society. but we humans can still change that ai opens up all kinds of new dimensions and the adventure has just begun to join us again next time on arts 21.

dear france. dear antonio, here's a scene when your mother was born in 1969, the one was already 8 years old. my grandchildren were born after the wall fell, born in ingrid 3 generations, one family on a journey through a recent german history mall, our family and costs 15 minutes on d, w. a
