The next in our Artist Talk and Soup series is Brendan Howell and his 
position towards Artificial Intelligence. All are welcome!

Despite 60+ years of research in Artificial Intelligence, we are, 
arguably, not much closer to human-like talking, reasoning machines than 
we were in the 1950s. This is less due to failure on the part of 
computer scientists, and more to the semantic gap between academic and 
pop cultural understanding. While this might sound like disappointment 
(or relief), examining our fears of and desires for „Superficial 
Intelligence“ reveal some fun things about human relations in the valley 
of technological mediation. Join us for an uncanny lecture.

Brendan Howell was born in Manchester, CT, USA in 1976. He is an artist 
and a reluctant engineer who has created various software works and 
interactive electronic inventions. Currently, he lives in Berlin, Germany.
