About
We are living through an era where artificial intelligence (AI) is surfacing in all aspects of people’s lives. These systems are presented as all-knowing and far too complex for the average person to understand. Learning to Parrot is a two-hour workshop that stages a hands-on encounter with the assumptions underlying chatbot technologies such as ChatGPT. The aim is to demystify them and create a space for reflecting on the implications of their use. The title is a reference to the term 'Stochastic Parrot' and the work of Dr. Emily M. Bender.
