Description

For half a century, Nile Rodgers has been making hit records that have touched people's hearts around the world. The creative force behind disco pioneers Chic, and some of the best known songs of David Bowie, Madonna and Beyoncé, tells us the definition of an artist: someone whose work "speaks to the souls of a million strangers". But what if generative AI can make music that's just as good? Is AI a threat or a blessing to art and human expression? We also hear from the head of the Hollywood actors' union on why moviemakers went on strike over the threat posed by AI. And from Refik Anadol, a leading light in AI-generated art. Guests: Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, National Executive Director and Chief Negotiator of the actors’ union SAG-AFTRA Refik Anadol, Media Artist and Director, Refik Anadol Studio Nile Rodgers, musician and founder of the We Are Family Foundation Watch: Nile Rodgers interview: https://www.weforum.org/videos/ai-nile-rodgers/ Podcasts: What's next for generative AI?
