The Future of AI Writing Contest by Gadfly AI

What does the future of AI hold for us? This question is on everyone’s mind. The past couple of years have been crazy for AI - it’s disrupting almost every aspect of our lives - the way we do our work, create art, write, learn, teach, do business, or communicate.

This is the era of LLMs and Generative Models trained on our data, built for humans by humans. The speed of disruption is making many of us question the regulatory concerns, ethical implications, and AI’s role in our everyday lives. This is the right time to discuss the fascinating and disruptive AI and its impact on our future!

Gadfly AI and HackerNoon are super excited to bring our AI community ‘The Future of AI Contest’. Share your expertise, projects, research, or thoughts on all the exciting and/or (😉) scary realms of AI, LLMs, and Generative Art+Code.

How to Enter the Future of AI Writing Contest

All you need to do is:

1. Write a story about anything relevant to AI - LLMs, Generative Art+Code, AI Research, Securing AI, AI Regulation, AI Ethics, and more.

2. Add the #future-of-AI tag to your story and submit.

…That’s it!

We're looking for submissions that explore the following topics:

1. Identity and Ownership: How Does AI Impact Art, Creativity, and Intellectual Property

   Share your thoughts, ideas, and perspectives on how AI is impacting society. Discuss the potential benefits, risks, and challenges AI presents, or explore the philosophical implications of intelligent machines. This can be everything from how AI can be used for social good (or destruction) to how we build trust chains in a generative supply gain.

2. Generative Art+Code: Showcase your AI-inspired generative artworks. Demonstrate the symbiosis between art and code in the realm of artificial intelligence.

3. AI Research Papers/Reviews: Enlighten our readers with your expertise in AI research. Whether you're studying the latest breakthroughs in machine learning or investigating the ethical implications of AI, we want to hear from you.

4. Disruptive AI: We're interested in your thoughts on how rapidly emerging technologies should be consumed by end users when tech moves faster than regulation. How should society adapt to these rapid changes? What are the potential implications and how can they be mitigated?

5. Securing AI: Based on the insights from Securing AI: Concerns & Immune Systems for Emerging Technologies, we're also interested in submissions that discuss the security aspects of AI. How can we ensure the longevity and trustworthiness of AI? What are the unique security challenges posed by AI, and how can they be addressed?
