Sketch of a culture of natural intelligence

At the AI conference Prompting Culture, organized by re:publica and the Berlin Senate Department for Culture, SOFF presented her speculative sketch for a culture of natural intelligence in the summer of 2024. The presentation was repeated in the fall
of 2024at the 40th anniversary event of the FrauenComputerZentrumBerlin.

 

In this work, SOFF imagines a future in which humanity has fundamentally redefined its understanding of intelligence and creativity. Artificial Intelligence is no longer used to replicate human norms but to foster deeper connections between culture and nature, supporting ideals that value authenticity and celebrate diversity. The presentation offers a constructive critique of the current application of AI in human culture and explores speculative,
hopeful perspectives for its development.
