Monique Luckas will be speaking at the Museum AI Summit 2025 :

The Creepy Guide — From a team that set out to prompt fear

The lecture gives an insight into how AI is used at Futurium – thematically in the exhibition, with exhibits in the lab and also in everyday communication. Using the example of the Creepy Guide, an AI adaptation of the classic audio guide, we will show how creative ideas and a small budget can be used to create exciting experiences for visitors. The Creepy Guide is a best practice example of how public and cultural institutions can use AI to create projects that surprise and inspire.
