X in the Loop Webinar Series

Through perspectives from Carnegie Mellon University faculty and industry leaders, the rotating series examines how generative AI is reshaping data and prediction, AI literacy, immersive media and games, film and authorship and workforce development. No technical background is required. Each session is 60 minutes on Zoom, including time for audience questions. Topic: AI Film & Creative Arts Lab: Reimagining Authorship in the Age of AI ​In a world where computers can create any image, how do humans decide what is worth making? This session opens the door to the AI Film & Creative Arts Lab, where students and researchers explore how generative material and creative inquiry lead to new forms of expression. Participants see a real workflow move from idea to finished shot, and discuss the questions that matter now — originality, authorship and responsible use — as these tools enter the production pipelines of today and tomorrow. Speaker: ​ Rod Piza, Professor of the Practice, Department of English & Director, AI Film Lab, Carnegie Mellon University This event is organized by the Department of Languages, Cultures & Applied Linguistics (LCAL) and sponsored by the InnoGen Fund and CETIC.
