I'm a creative technologist specialised in AI, and IoT Robotics. My main interests are the revelatory effects of technology on humans on an individual as well as societal level, as well as the interaction of humans with technology.

I came up through the German hacker scene, when I got involved in 2013 as one of the main organisers of Make Munich, Germany's first maker festival, then as one of the co-founders of the Munich Maker Lab, continuing on to hosting workshops and temporary hackerspaces at events like Hedo-Congress, MLOVE, DMY, etc.

Hegemony eroding: a hands-on GenAI workshop on how to excavate diversity from latent space

Karim Hamdi

Summary
Generative AI models ingest huge datasets gathered all over the web. Hence, they reflect decades of western cultural dominance. Yet, there are cracks through which diversity seeps through. I invite you to explore those cracks and to reflect on the blurred line between prejudice and representation.
