Simply put, AI is just a programmed algorithm that performs specific tasks. AI has no consciousness of its own and shows no understanding. The question of the relationship between AI and \u201chuman warmth\u201d is actually utopian. Nevertheless, I have explored this question through my art. <\/p>\n
In the future, robots will help with care or loneliness, for example, and will be used as service staff in restaurants. When these robots have a humanoid appearance, people even develop a certain empathy for the machines. However, this feeling quickly changes if the machines look too human. This phenomenon, known as the “Uncanny Valley”, means that the more human-like the robots are, the more sympathetic they seem – but only up to a certain point. Many people find any resemblance beyond this point creepy or scary. This only changes again when a robot can no longer be distinguished from a human. <\/p>\n
The increasing use of artificial intelligence offers a wide range of potential – but at the same time it also arouses fears and has a sinister effect on some people. The “AI-Robot – Artificial Intelligence” series explores selected aspects of this area of tension through art. <\/p>\n
First, the motifs were photographed 8 to 13 times each with the analog Klimsch Praktika repro camera. The exposure was made on 50×60 cm, special black and white positive photo paper – without the detour via a negative – with subsequent manual development in the photo laboratory. By exposing directly onto the photographic paper, each photograph is unique within a small edition. <\/p>\n
In the second step, the identical image themes were created again – this time with software support from an AI. The subject of close examination and in-depth evaluation here is how such an AI, in comparison to analog photography, implements the individual themes pictorially. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
