„"More Time for Beautiful Things" and "Artificial Intelligence – Real Prejudices" are the titles of two motion comics by trainees from the Louise-Schroeder-School. These and other exciting seminar results from „Digital Living? Present and future with AI!“ In July 2025, they will provide insights into the debate surrounding artificial intelligence for our coexistence today and in the future.
How do AI systems affect our everyday lives? How should AI be trained so that it strengthens democratic discourse and does not manipulate it? What avenues are needed for participation and involvement when it comes to our individual and societal future in a digitized world? Trainees contributed their perspectives as young adults to these fundamental questions.
With openness, curiosity and creative means, they sought different perspectives, researched and discussed.
The starting point was always the connection to their lived reality with the aim of developing new ideas and options for action for their own actions as responsible co-creators of society – in the online and offline sphere, today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.
In five parallel workshops The participants engaged intensively with artificial intelligence. The workshop groups tested AI to varying degrees.
Seminar results
The workshop group describes their project as follows:
„"Artificial intelligence is increasingly impacting all areas of our daily lives. With a focus on the interpersonal relationships that people build with one another, we have examined AI applications. An experiment provides insights into how artificial intelligence applications interact. Against this backdrop, we asked ourselves how the humanization of AI can be evaluated and whether we consider it ethically justifiable.".
Podcast cover created with AI (Canva and Midjourney)
An interview with Prof. Dr. med. Dominik Müller It shows how AI is already being used in the medical field. It describes the hopes and problems that arise, and also how the relationship between doctors and patients changes through the use of AI. Furthermore, we have the use of AI in nursing care The issue has been examined. AI will play an increasingly important role in the future, therefore it makes sense to consider now how AI should be used in society and in private life, and what an ideal approach to it might look like.“

Will AI give us more free time? Will it relieve us of the need to think? Will it replace and displace humans, taking control of everything? Are we developing a human relationship with AI, and what role do data training or concepts like truth or love play in this? Does artificial intelligence reinforce our prejudices by reproducing stereotypes? Many questions, which the participants in the MotionComic workshop in their Animations in very different ways have addressed:
„4+3=42“
„Dave and AI in a cycle“
„"Child"“
„"Kiki is being driven"“
„SUSI“
„Artificial Intelligence – Real Prejudices“
„"More time for beautiful things"“
One of the installations at the presentation of the workshop "Creative Writing""
„"Depth", "My God", "Excerpts from the activity log of AI entity 10849287295",
„Devastation“, „CONNECTION_How meat loves code“, „Transmutatio Noumena“
„ALUMINUM FOIL“ and „QN-11_rates“ The texts, created by the participants themselves, are titled "Artwork." In German and English, they explored artificial intelligence and expressed their perspectives artistically in various forms such as essays, screenplays, poems, research reports, and more. They presented their impressive work in an interactive installation. One presentation challenged viewers to guess whether a text was created by a human or AI.
All texts released for publication can be read in a downloadable PDF (approx. 4MB).
How can engaging with AI be made playful? Board and card games offer freedom while simultaneously imposing limitations through game rules. The question also arises in dealing with artificial intelligence – partly due to the new European AI regulation – as to which... Rules and leeway We need. In their engagement with artificial intelligence, the workshop participants developed their own ideas and with the help of others.
""RALF – Rise of the AI""
„"RALF – Rise of the AI"“
„Story:
You are Human Intelligences (HIs) – brilliant software developers from the company Hechtwerst, who are working together to create a powerful Artificial Intelligence (AI) called RALF.
RALF is meant to improve the world and solve human problems and crises. But his progress isn't linear: every development can also lead to setbacks. Only through skillful resource management and cooperation can you achieve your goals in three increasingly challenging phases.
Complete rounds!“
„"Prompt – I know what you want"“
„The goal of the game:
The tipster must give such good tips that the guessers can guess the picture card after no more than three tips.„
„"Prompt – I know what you want"“
„"Prompt – I know what you want"“
„Guess agAIn“
„"Game objective:"
Hackers and artists work together to guess a hidden target word. Artificial intelligence (AI) tries to distract the hacker from the target word – either leading them to the wrong word or another incorrect one.“

Our understanding of the world and the formation of opinions will continue to be strongly influenced by images as constructions of reality. Image-generating AI models draw on existing material and often reproduce stereotypes, prejudices, and nostalgic imagery. AI thus influences our perception of reality not only in terms of content but also in form.
„Creativity“, „non-generable“, „imperfect“, „Artificial Interpretation“, „Synthetic Silence“, „Back to Nature“, „lgbtqAI“ and „The History of the Image“, These are the titles of the image series that participants in the Analog Black and White Photography workshop conceived and photographed on AI-related topics. They developed their own films and prints in the darkroom. Photographed works aOur jointly developed final exhibition is featured in this PDF (approx. 17 MB) to view.
