Time And Date
In a world characterised by automated content, rampant fake news and a flood of media consumption, the role of the journalist as truth curator and guardian of public information has never been more vital. However, as robots and machines continue to demonstrate their increasing intelligence, autonomously generating images and text from mere prompts, a haunting question arises: Can journalism endure without the human touch?
Join us as we unravel the layers of AI's impact on journalism.

Chromatic Festival and The University of Newcastle acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal Nation, Darkinjung Nation, Biripai Nation, Worimi Nation, Wonnarua Nation and Eora Nation. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
Chromatic Festival and The University of Newcastle recognise that First Nations sovereignty was never ceded. This continent always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.
We respect their cultural heritage, beliefs, and continuing relationship with the land, and recognise that they are the proud survivors of more than two hundred years of dispossession.
