We want to draw attention to how inhumane the world of algorithms is, to talk about malpractices of digital corporations and to expose the truth about the technology everybody admires, says Wiesław Bartkowski, head of Creative Coding at SWPS University of Social Sciences and Humanities, in conversation with Monika Redzisz.
When there is nobody around, with no better alternative, we tend to copy decisions of artificial intelligence, even if it acts stupid. Professor Michał Klichowski, discoverer of this phenomenon, in conversation with Michał Rolecki.

We were in our early twenties and we were bold. We knew that everyone in the world was working on speech synthesizers of better quality.

The question about the future of artificial intelligence should be looked at in a broader context: Where is this all going? Why do we need it?
