Visual Literacy in the age of AI | Mandar Kulkarni, THE Labs
1 hr 30 min
About The Workshop
As the internet is increasingly flooded with AI-generated content, the need for visual literacy has never been more urgent. This interactive workshop engages participants with films and visuals, equipping them with a critical lens (and a simple checklist) to distinguish between human-shot footage, VFX-based content, and fully AI-generated videos.
Since AI-generated videos are only going to improve, the workshop also aims to spark a deeper conversation: do we need to redefine visual literacy, especially for children?
