Georgetown University’s “A.I. in Art: Perceptions, Values, & Rights” Exhibit Featured at 2025 TechProm

Posted in News Story

“What does this tool of generative AI mean for art—and for us as a society that appreciates art?”

This was the central question posed earlier this year at Georgetown University’s A.I. in Art: Perceptions, Values, & Rights exhibit—a project that was featured last week in a one-night-only, special reprise installation at the Center for Democracy and Technology’s (CDT) 2025 TechProm event on October 23 held at The LINE DC.

For the third year in a row, CDT included artists as part of their tech policy changemakers. The Tech Prom Artist Exhibition showcased an expansive, student-driven show that included over 150 physical and digital works from the A.I. in Art exhibit. The project explores the impact of data and algorithmic systems at the heart of technology policy discussions happening today and is the culmination of an interdisciplinary research project co-directed by students and faculty from Georgetown’s Department of Computer Science, Department of Art and Art History, and the Law Center.

“We were honored to bring our exhibit to a room filled with technology policy leaders who are wrestling every day with questions surrounding the role of A.I. in art and beyond as they set policy for a rapidly evolving technology landscape.”

Department of Computer Science Professor Elissa Redmiles

Each year CDT brings together the top leaders and innovators in tech policy from government, industry, and civil society as part of their mission to advance civil rights and civil liberties in the digital age. This year’s host committee included the Presidents of the Omidyar Network, NPR, WIRED, Microsoft, and the Knight Foundation.
