RUN BABY RUN
"RUN BABY RUN," single-channel video, 4:45 min RUN BABY RUN was inspired by a news headline, Sorry, AI won’t “fix” climate change ( MIT Technology Review). According to The World Economic Forum, AI tools predict weather, track icebergs, recycle waste and find plastic in the ocean, however, on its own, AI is powerless to solve climate change––regulation is required for that. An encouraging arena where AI has made quiet progress, is education. Climate change video games can teach children about climate change in subtle ways––no lectures or preaching required. However, the most popular games, ones played mostly by adults, focus on building new cities that have a low carbon footprint, or take place on another planet after earth is no longer habitable. I can only surmise that it’s not entertaining to try and fix the problems we currently face. Has the race already been won?
