The image is a very detailed, black-and-white sketch-like illustration featuring a complex scene of interconnected figures and technology. The artwork portrays various individuals in different environments to represent the relationship between technology and humans. 

In the foreground, multiple people are surrounded by computer screens filled with data visualisations, charts, and technical information. A woman seated in an armchair appears deep in thought, surrounded by data-filled monitors. Beside her, a man leans over, using a tablet to assist with their inspection of a plant or tree. In the centre, a figure holds a large frame or screen displaying anatomical illustrations, representing the use of AI to analyse medical imagery. To the left, another person is intently observing a computer screen, while a second figure nearby is deeply immersed in analysing data. A woman dominates the right side of the composition, gazing upwards as if in contemplation or envisioning something beyond the immediate scene. The background features more people, including a family holding hands, and other abstract representations of data.Ariyana Ahmad & The Bigger Picture / Better Images of AI / AI is Everywhere / Licenced by CC-BY 4.0

In this fireside chat from IEEE Computational Intelligence Society, Tayo Obafemi-Ajayi (Missouri State University) asks Hava T. Siegelmann (University of Massachusetts, Amherst) about how to benefit from AI without losing your human self.

What happens when AI runs out of pictures?

AI is data-hungry and needs thousands of images to learn how to detect tumours or product defects, but often very few are available. A new method aims to change that.
