    MICHELLE HOWARD: THE VALUE OF USELESSNESS IN ARCHITECTURAL EDUCATION
    Historians predict that the rise of artificial intelligence will produce a “useless” class that will not only be unemployed, but unemployable. This lecture discusses usefulness and employability in current societal discourse, how these affect the current practice of architecture and proposes alternatives.
