Integrating Indigenous Art and Artificial Intelligence: Exploring Opportunities and Challenges
This presentation examines the convergence of Indigenous art and Artificial Intelligence (AI), highlighting both opportunities and challenges. The rise of AI-generated art has sparked ethical debates, particularly concerning the unauthorized use of Indigenous styles, raising questions about cultural appropriation and intellectual property rights. Addressing these concerns requires a collaborative approach, ensuring that AI development respects Indigenous knowledge and sovereignty, and that artists retain control over their cultural expressions. By navigating these complexities thoughtfully, AI can become a tool that amplifies Indigenous voices while honoring their rich cultural heritage.
