Beyond the First 'Wow': Trust in the Age of Algorithmic Art
Chelsea and Georgia dive into issue #67 of The Intersect newsletter, exploring what makes creative work trustworthy when AI can instantly generate compelling visuals. Through stories from NOT REAL ART's resilience-focused year-in-review, Ars Electronica's vision of artists as social navigators, and Marco Brambilla's AI-reimagined World's Fairs, they examine how the creative world is responding to algorithmic abundance. The discussion touches on Bradford's City of Culture success, Beeple's interactive AI installation at LACMA, and the photography world's identity crisis as described by Marco Savarese. With human-made design commanding a 60% premium through the 'Not By AI' movement and Adobe emphasizing authenticity in their 2026 trends, the episode questions whether proving you're human is becoming creativity's most valuable act. The conversation reveals how artists are finding new roles as guides through uncertainty while grappling with maintaining creative voice when machines can replicate almost everything except lived experience and intentional imperfection.
