Come along to the UK’s first ever AI and Poetry Symposium, organised by Lyra Bristol Poetry.

Lyra’s project ‘Page Against the Machine: AI and Poetry’, funded by Brigstow Institute, has been pairing public poets and technologists together to explore the ethical and creative dilemmas of our time. They have created new work responding to the research question: ‘How can poetic writing produced by, or with, AI accurately model human voice, narrative and place-based experience?’

This event will include presentations of research and poems from four pairs: Shakara and Vince Baidoo, Deanna Rodger and Michael Marcinkowski, Raina Greifer and Francesco Bentivegna, Ralph Hoyte and Matthew Olden, as well as the project’s lead researcher Caleb Parkin.

Everyone is welcome to attend this free event (advance booking is essential) and to join the conversation around AI, poetry and creativity in a relaxed, fun and friendly environment.
