The Apocalypse Roadshow
This event is a part of Survival Fest and 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. This event is also part of a whole new festival! Want more info? Visit https://crestedbuttearts.org/event/survival-fest/ for info and passes.
