Fighting for Creativity in the Age of AI

Dr. Emily Wenger researches security and privacy issues of AI models. She is an Assis. professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke. She was named to the 2024 Forbes 30 under 30 list for her work on Glaze, a tool that protects artists' work from unwanted use in generative AI models.

So what’s going on behind PSH?? A pavilion is coming, that's what!

The pavilion will be an outdoor gathering space that is accessible to PSH community during their bookings. In addition to the pavilion, there will be green gathering spaces and a short path that leads from the PSH buildings to the pavilion. A ramp (like the one at 1809) will be added to the back of the teal building to ensure ADA accessibility to the pavilion from the 1805 Building.

Now is a great time to start daydreaming what kind of outdoor events you would like to host!

We are sooo excited about this expansion. We also want you to be aware of how this may affect your next visit to campus.

Right now, the parking lot behind the teal building is inaccessible due to the flow of construction equipment. in the coming weeks, the parking lot behind the teal building will disappear altogether, and you will need to park in front of the two story building at 1803 for events at the teal building (1805). When that fills up, you will need to find street parking along Chapel Hill Rd and on other nearby streets.

We have included a parking map in this post. Please share this map with friends, co-organizers, and event attendees that you know are coming to campus in the coming weeks.

The removal of the parking lot behind the teal building will also affect Lending Library pickups and drop offs. For now, please continue parking behind the teal building for your Lending Library requests. We will provide updates about changes to the Lending Library location, and its designated pickup/drop-off spot in the coming weeks.

We ask that you bear with us; construction projects are tricky. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the PSH team and we will do our best to answer and help you make a plan for your event!

Lastly... stay on the lookout for some volunteer requests that we will share in the coming weeks and months. We will need plant donations and extra hands for a big planting day! We will also need your help throwing a big open house event later this fall.

So that’s what’s going on behind PSH!! We are excited to provide updates as they come
