Kudzu Club Workshop: On Culture and Critical Theory

Start: Thursday, February 12, 202606:00 PM

End: Thursday, February 12, 202608:00 PM

Do you ever find yourself thinking, AI THIS, AI THAT, AYE... I NEED A BREAK?????

Welcome to the (kudzu?!) club 🎯 you're not alone! AI is everywhere these days: it's in our search engines, our emails, our memes, our screens, but there's this near ubiquitous cultural impact to say absolutely nothing of its social and economic impact. This teach-in/workshop uses the cultural phenomenon of AI as a starting point to discuss its role as a tool and weapon of capitalism in accelerating and intensifying trends of alienation, extraction, and exploitation.

Join us on Thursday, Feb. 12 at the Williamsburgh Library Auditorium (240 Division Ave at Marcy Ave) from 6-8PM to learn more & discuss together 👥🌱
