SUMMARY:Master Series Masterclass: Surviving AI in partnership with Arizona State University
DESCRIPTION:This event is a part of Chautauqua’s partnership with Arizona State University and is hosted by comedian Shane Mauss and Athena Aktipis (featuring comedy\, science & music.) Surviving AI is a comedy show that blends humor with thoughtful exploration of how humans relate to artificial intelligence and how we might build a more cooperative technological future. The evening begins with a stand-up comedy set\, moves into a salon-style conversation with experts on AI and cooperation\, and culminates in a live improvisational “battle” between a human artist and an AI\, responding to each other in real time. Throughout the show\, an LED screen displays dynamic visuals generated through human–AI collaboration\, created live by AI artist Michael Strauss\, inviting the audience to reflect on creativity\, agency\, and collaboration in an age of intelligent machines.
