"We don't need another exhibition marveling at the advancement of AI, how it will learn from you and equip you or replace and outrace you. The swings between techno-optimism and pessimism have, in fact, echoed a long history of the arrowlike, linear, progressive role of technology. There's the man and his tool. Then there's always a hero and a villain. Featuring artists Chloe Gao and duo Tong Wu &Yuguang Zhang, We May Be inThis Together counterpoints such a dominant narrative that places AI developments as grand breakthroughs or singular moments and beckons a non-linear, symbiotic path. From generative AI, VR, multimedia installations, sculpted objects, and prints, they present two disparate worlds that reveal ways of 'gathering,' knitting our intricate connections to machine learning as an ongoing collective narrative. The idea of gathering, raised by Le Guin, contests the dualistic conflict-driven view of technology. She posits the first technological tool as the 'basket' to gather, not the spear. Hence, the narrative of technology is reframed from the individualistic, singular 'he' to a plural collective 'we'. Rather than seeing technology as a tool of domination or a linear progression, artists in the show explore how we could work along with AI to evoke stories, memories, and experiences. As our entanglements with technologies become more intimate than ever, we invite you to look around, instead of look ahead."
