About Kris Krüg
Kris Krüg is a photographer, creative technologist, and community builder. He has spent two decades documenting technology, art, activism, and the back rooms where culture actually changes, on a public trail that runs through National Geographic, CBC, SXSW, TEDxOilSpill, and the Olympics. He leads the BC + AI Ecosystem Association and the Vancouver AI Meetup, and co-instructs the Responsible AI Professional certification program. He started the meetups because he wanted this festival and had no community yet. Most of his work now points at one question: how do we use AI to increase human capacity instead of flattening human judgment?
