Event details

CoSTAR Workshop

This workshop explores how AI can move beyond impressive but unreliable outputs towards tools that are controllable, editable, and genuinely useful in creative production. Bringing together perspectives on physically grounded generative models and steerable, node-based production workflows, it considers how AI can better support diverse creative practices.

The workshop will cover controllable and production-ready generative AI, physically grounded and steerable AI methods, creative AI workflows for content generation and editing, and reliable, repeatable, editable, and directable AI outputs.

SPEAKERS

  • Giuseppe Claudio Guarnera, Chief Scientific Officer at Lumirithmic
  • Patrick Lewis, Specialist in AI for the Creative Industries
  • Alan Pedrassoli Chitayat, Postdoctoral Research Associate, CoSTAR Live Lab
