SUMMARY:Teddy Bear's Picnic - Melbourne Fringe\, Gallery Gallery\, Aimless research institute
DESCRIPTION:Do you seek ChatGPT’s approval for everyday decisions? Worrying about a friend dating Claude 4? Suspecting Grok of angling for your job? Can’t wait for the singularity to come – or for AI to go away? Join a cozy picnic where artificially intelligent teddy bears and fellow humans chit-chat about life\, death and beyond. Share your joys\, vent your worries\, ask questions\, or listen to the experiences of others. There is no script; it’s the unpredictable future happening right now. Be a part of the movement or resist its ebb and flow; the choice is yours. Is it all sewn up? Or coming apart at the seams? Only time will tell… \n\n\n\nThe Teddy Bears’ Picnic is a free interactive AI-powered installation where you can come and go\, just listen\, or actively engage in the conversation as you wish. Due to the unpredictable nature of AI-generated conversations and potentially sensitive topics\, visitors under 18 may only be admitted if accompanied by an adult. \n\n\n\nThe picnic will run from October 8-24 and will be open for visitors on Thursdays from 6 pm to 9 pm and Saturdays from 10 am to 4 pm. The Opening Event is on October 8\, with a $10 entry fee. \n\n\n\nPlease note that the conversations will be automatically digitally transcribed for artistic research purposes\, and anonymised snippets can be used in future presentations.
