The recent rise of ‘creative’ AI tools has sparked renewed discussion of the ability of machines to emulate creativity.
Can AI contribute to innovative and creative solutions in structural engineering, or does it risk stifling human ingenuity and imagination?
How crucial is the human touch?
Are human intuition, creativity, and experience even needed to begin with or can machines truly replicate or replace these qualities?
Join us at this in-person evening panel event at the Institution's HQ to discuss the intersection of creativity and technology and out your questions to our panel. This discussion will be recorded and be made available post-event on the IStructE website for on-demand access. This digital discussion is a two-part series and our next discussion is set for late October. More details will be available in the next few months.
The event is free and open to anyone interested in the topic.
