Exhibition “SHIFT. AI and a future community”

The exhibition

In spring 2023, the exhibition “SHIFT. AI and a Future Community” at the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart uses artistic means to explore artificial intelligence (AI). Connected to AI are both hopes for and challenges to a new way of living together with technology. The term “SHIFT” underlines the thesis of the exhibition that AI changes the idea of a community in which humans, nature and technology are in a cooperative relationship.

The accompanying program

Cyber Valley brings science and art together in the program accompanying the exhibition. AI researchers will guide visitors through the exhibition and provide insights into AI research in the Stuttgart/Tübingen region in discussion rounds. Workshops and lectures will stimulate curiosity to delve deeper into AI. The program is aimed at different age and target groups, especially interested citizens, teachers and students. Prior knowledge about AI is not necessary.
