ABSTRACT
Springing from the landmark exhibition Deep Fakes: Art and Its Double, this book has presented an array of cultural deep fakes and increasingly prevalent deep fake techniques and technologies in contemporary museology. It has laid the foundations for a systematic rethinking of digital cultural artefacts and the curatorial work of interpretation in a post-digital era. Alongside reviewing the book's contents, this conclusion looks ahead, imagining future directions for new models of digital stewardship and curatorial insights gained from frontier thinking on machine intelligence to empower LAM professionals and their audiences. This includes speculating on methods museums may employ in the coming years and how memory organizations can develop resilient strategies such as future-focused curatorship and more collaborative and adaptive organisms.
