📣 Exciting News! We’re thrilled to announce our engagement with Work in Culture and AI expert Avery Swartz on a new research initiative, supported by Ontario Creates. This project will explore how Ontario’s creative industries are using AI tools for administration and operations. Through a survey and interviews, we'll ask about how and whether AI tools are enhancing efficiencies for creative industry businesses and workers. Creative industry organizations will be able to use the insights to situate themselves within the context of their cultural media peers and to arm themselves with a current sense of the potential risks and rewards of utilizing AI tools for administrative work.
