No Shade to the Robots (w/Stephanie Dinkins & C. Quintana)

Good morrow, dear Classmates! For today's episode of ART CLASS, we're thinking about how the art of the future intersects with the art of the present. Have you ever wondered what art will look like in the age of artificial intelligence? Well, so have we, and so has this week's guest: the brilliant artist and scholar, Professor Stephanie Dinkins (0:18:10). Join us for an absolutely fascinating conversation all about the dangers and the limitless possibilities of an AI-generated world as well as insight into her conversations with the world's first Black female robot, BINA48. Later, we're joined for Career Day with playwright C. Quintana (0:57:23). Plus, Morning Announcements with Emile (0:54:28) and a little Pure Black Joy (1:09:08) to get you through to the end of week. Take your seats, because class is in session, y'all!
