From Uncertainty to Growth: AI as a Lever for Solo Freelancers

Markets & Capital

Apr28.

Generative AI is fundamentally changing creative work – and new opportunities are emerging for solo freelancers in particular to work more efficiently, sharpen their offerings and shape growth. Jenny Habermehl takes you on her journey through the last few years of her self-employment: where did she start, which experiments worked – and how did new services and products emerge from them? The impulse gives an honest insight into the opportunities, uncertainties and decisions along the way and shows how AI is shifting creative processes and thus opening up new entrepreneurial perspectives for creative professionals.

Film Screening: Der Unternehmer das Dorf und die Künstler

An entrepreneur and two conceptual artists are planning an unusual kind of event in Deppendorf: a publicity stunt, instrumentalisation - or the rousing power of art? The controversial idea creates meaning and community until the limits of what is reasonable are reached. The film tells the story of the art action "Fliegen retten in Deppendorf", planned and documented in 2012, in all its ambivalence, absurdity and humanity - as a found-footage story without judgement. At the same time, it shows how the action triggered a change in the company that continues to this day and the "Save instead of kill" movement.

A film by Marcelo Busse and Julia Suermondt.
