AI Exploration
DEN sees AI as one of the digital technologies that organizations can apply in their digital transformation. Together with and for the sector, we are looking for valuable and responsible ways to do so.
To gain insight into the current state, future expectations, and support needs regarding AI in the cultural sector, DEN conducted an exploration. This exploration helps DEN and other organizations develop the right offerings.
The AI exploration consists of two parts:
- A quantitative study through an online questionnaire among 215 cultural professionals. The study was conducted by DEN in December ‘23 and January ‘24.
- Three meetings in February and March ‘24 in which, using various work forms, the current state of AI in the cultural sector, future expectations, and support needs were addressed.
