The Innovention Series 11 hosted by Verdant Zeal Group provided an insightful platform for experts in the creative industry to discuss the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and the arts. 

The event, anchored by Funmibi Adeleye, a Brand Consultant, and Corporate Strategist, witnessed a thought-provoking fireside chat featuring Joke Silva, a renowned Nigerian Actress and Entrepreneur, and Kunle Afolayan, the CEO of Golden Effects Pictures.

The dialogue highlighted the fusion of technology and creative expression, addressing the challenges, opportunities, and ethical considerations that come with this transformative synergy.

Joke Silva, reflecting on her role as a Goodwill Ambassador focused on combating human trafficking, emphasized the confluence of AI and social issues.

Silva highlighted the potential of AI in curbing illegal activities, underlining the importance of utilizing technology to address pressing societal challenges.

Kunle Afolayan, an ingenious figure in the film industry, shared his experiences in navigating technology and creativity. 

He emphasized the need for balance, stating, “We must balance our reliance on AI with human creativity. AI can enhance efficiency, but human touch, cultural context, and creativity are irreplaceable.” 

Afolayan advocated for preserving cultural nuances in storytelling, cautioning against overreliance on AI, which might compromise authenticity and diversity in creative expressions.

The discussion delved into augmented reality (AR) and its potential impact on creative industries. Joke Silva expressed her reservations about the widespread adoption of AR, questioning its potential consequences on employment. 

She raised a pertinent concern, “As AI evolves, what happens to those who lose their jobs? Can AI be harnessed to create more opportunities in the creative sector?” Silva highlighted the need to align technological advancements with inclusive economic growth.

Both panelists stressed the significance of aligning technological progress with ethical considerations and human values. Joke Silva emphasized the importance of Nigerian narratives in the global arena, urging for responsible usage of technology.

She remarked, “Our values need to be right for the culture. Let’s use AI to elevate our country’s image and foster a sense of national pride.” Kunle Afolayan echoed her sentiments, emphasizing the need for a thoughtful approach. He stated, “AI should not compromise our authenticity. We must maintain the integrity of our stories and culture while embracing innovation.”

The fireside chat concluded with a shared vision – a future where AI enhances, rather than diminishes, creativity. Both panelists emphasized the need for ongoing dialogue, ethical guidelines, and a collective effort to harness technology responsibly. 

With the speed at which the creative industry is evolving, the integration of AI offers a lot of possibilities, provided it aligns with human values, preserves cultural diversity, and empowers societies globally. 

Through mindful collaboration, the fusion of AI and creativity can usher in boundless innovation and cultural enrichment.
