At Nashville AI Week, Nicole Ayers—founder and CEO of Jumpsuit, an AI-powered creative agency—will lead a compelling session titled “Mind vs. Machine: Where Does Intelligence End & Consciousness Begin?” In this talk, Ayers explores the boundaries between human awareness and artificial intelligence, challenging us to consider whether machines can truly replicate consciousness or merely mimic intelligence. Drawing from her work at the intersection of technology and creativity, she’ll unpack the philosophical and practical questions surrounding AI’s role in cognition, creativity, and the human experience.
