Ink vs Algorithm is a hands-on workshop where students explore the creative tension between human intuition and artificial intelligence. Using an AI-powered drawing tool, participants create images designed to stump the algorithm but remain decipherable to their peers. Through this playful activity, students uncover how AI interprets visuals, contrasts human perception, and reflects on the unique qualities of human creativity. Perfect for budding technologists and curious thinkers, this session challenges students to think critically about the capabilities and limitations of AI while fostering collaboration and imagination.*
