Piotr Mirowski, co-founder of Improbotics, talks to us about improv comedy performance with AI at Art AI Festival 2019

We were delighted to host Improbotics at the Art AI Festival for the second year! The troupe was co-founded by Piotr Mirowski, a research scientist in artificial intelligence, and Kory Mathewson, a recent PhD graduate of the University of Alberta, Canada.

Piotr explains in this short video diary how they developed the concept of a comedy improv performance with an AI and how it works in practice. The video is interspersed with some scenes from this year’s performance, which took place at Phoenix in Leicester.

We can’t wait to see how this performance develops further – roll on 2020!
