Imagining AI futures
Other Intelligences is an online exhibition of AI art made during an interdisciplinary course Art and Artificial Intelligence in Aalto University during spring 2020. In the exhibition we make artistic proposals for the possible futures of AI systems and technological others.
Art made with AI has a distinct aesthetic quality to it that divides opinions. What role does the artist have in computer-generated artwork? How does the of human/machine co-evolution affect art? Art and Artificial Intelligence course discussed the ethical, aesthetic and social dimensions of artificial intelligence and machine learning in relation to art.
In the artworks the theme is explored by using the current AI tools in artistic practice and by suggesting new ways to think the changing human-machine relationship.
