Diederik Jekel the art in artificial intelligence

Will Artificial Intelligence (AI) be the downfall of humanity or simply the solution to all the boring office chores? Emails written and answered by a program, then forwarded to your colleague's program that then answers those emails; no more human intervention. No more creating a PowerPoint yourself or summarizing a document for your boss or knowing when a video is real or not. Soon, journalists, artists and judges will also simply be replaced by AI. No more thinking and struggling at work, because the computer can do your work better than you can. How on earth did we get here and what will this mean for humanity? What is life? What is creativity? Does evolution still exist and is this the result?

Diederik Jekel will take you on a journey through a very special story in this unique theatrical lecture. The greatest story imaginable. The one about life itself. How did life come about, how did humans come about and how did computers eventually come about? It promises to be a wonderful evening with lots of humor and at the end of the performance you will never look at any bacteria, human or computer in the same way again and have a good feeling about how artificial intelligence works under the hood. Intended for everyone, from young to old and also (especially) for people who can hardly find the on button on their phone.

It will change your perspective forever on the one thing that affects your life more than any other thing in our lives: the computer. And that in just an hour and a half! Possibly the last show you will ever see that was written by a human being.
