University of Zurich explores AI's impact on art history's epistemology

A lecture series titled "Now Processing" at the University of Zurich is examining the impact of computational methods on art history. The series delves into how tools like machine learning and generative AI are altering not just the methods but also the fundamental knowledge production within the field of Digital Art History. It questions the meaning of Digital Art History when computation itself influences the creation of knowledge about images. AI
