Welcome to the Digital Dialogues

We live in a complicated world. And with the explosion of AI tools over the past year that promise to blur the line between the real and the imaginary, it isn’t looking like life will get any simpler in the foreseeable future. Welcome to the Digital Dialogues discussion series. Over the next several months, the BC Museums Association will be joined by experts, innovators, and critical thinkers to discuss the societal effects of technology to equip the sector with the tools to make ethical equity-informed steps toward digital innovation. In the rush to embrace new and seemingly innovative technologies, it can be easy to start using these tools in our work without first thinking about their broader social, environmental, and cultural impacts. The Digital Dialogues series is designed to complement the 2023 gathering on Haida Gwaii, to help make additional space for important discussions that can’t fit into the agenda and to help continue dialogues sparked at the event.
