PAST EVENT: This was part of the EAF25 programme.

Shown at University of Edinburgh’s Inspace, Tipping Point explored how artists can help us respond more wisely to present realities and near-future horizons of artificial intelligence (AI).

Commissioned by Bridging Responsible AI Divides (BRAID), the exhibition features seven new artworks by Louise Ashcroft, Julie Freeman, Wesley Goatley, Identity 2.0, Rachel Maclean, Kiki Shervington-White, and Studio Above&Below, presenting new ways of thinking about today’s AI, the futures we want, and the communities needed to build it.

Commissioned artworks, which ranged from digital installations to sculptural interventions, zines and comedy sketches, addressed themes that reimagine AI uptake, inspire activism and resilience, and showcase artistic creativity in the field. The themes are part of BRAID’s mission to build public awareness, break down structural barriers in AI, and reimagine responsible AI perspectives and practices, providing a platform for artists to share their visions and for audiences to reflect on the role of AI in our society.
