Media scholars John D. Peters (Yale) and Ben Peters (UTulsa) will reflect on the digital media sometimes called artificial intelligence. They will share insights from ongoing research projects, including Ben’s research on the Soviet prehistory of AI. Among his working points: AI today is Soviet and ChatGPT hallucinates because of Stalin’s homophobic purges. Important: Lunch will be provided, but seats are limited. RSVP at bit.ly/rsvp-peters.
