SXSW 2025
Algorithms and Taste Will Never Overlap
Description:
Endless content rains down on us every minute, with curation left to an algorithm that prioritizes quick hits rather than deep, engaging content. In the era of AI, human-led curation is more important than ever before. This panel will highlight the importance of human curation of the art and entertainment we consume and explore the ways companies can prioritize the human touch—and how we can ensure that humans remain part of the creative process in the age of AI.
