The Creator in the Age of AI: an Urgent Call for the Human Mind - A Free Digital Workshop

Like it or not, artificial intelligence is rolling out into the world like a tidal wave. Martha Brockenbrough, author of FUTURE TENSE: "How We Made Artificial Intelligence and How It Will Change Everything", will explain in simple human terms how AI came about, how it is trained, why generative AI is problematic but not all AI is, as well as the reason humanity needs human-created stories and art. You’ll not only understand how fake brains work, but how your own does—so you can create the best possible work for young readers. Presenter Martha Brockenbrough is the former co-chair of faculty at Vermont College of Fine Arts. She’s written more than 20 books for young readers, including the Sid Fleischman-award winning TO CATCH A THIEF (Scholastic), the Kirkus Prize finalist THE GAME OF LOVE AND DEATH (Arthur A. Levine Books), and the forthcoming chapter book FRANK AND THE BIG MISTAKE (LevineQuerido).
