A humanoid AI robot is set to open its own exhibition of artwork in Oxford, drawn independently using a robotic arm and an inbuilt camera.<\/p>\n
The robot, called Ai-Da after the mathematician Ada Lovelace, is said to be the first ultra-realistic robot capable of drawing people from life using her eye and a pencil in her hand, according to its creators.<\/p>\n
Ai-Da’s solo exhibition Unsecured Futures, which opens at Oxford University from June 12, will showcase a selection of the robot’s work, developed using AI processes and algorithms at the university.<\/p>\n
The artwork will include drawing, painting, sculpture and video art, exploring the boundaries between AI, technology and organic life.<\/p>\n
‘Pioneering a new AI art movement, we are excited to present Ai-Da, the first professional humanoid artist, who creates her own art, as well as being a performance artist,’ said Aidan Meller, Ai-Da’s brainchild and gallery owner.<\/p>\n
As an AI robot, her artwork uses AI processes and algorithms.<\/p>\n
‘The work engages us to think about AI and technological uses and abuses in the world today.’<\/p>\n
Engineers in Leeds developed the robotic hand used by Ai-Da, which follows a number of stages and AI algorithms, calculating a virtual path based on what it sees in front of it and interpreting co-ordinates to create the piece of art.<\/p>\n
‘We are looking forward to the conversation Ai-Da sparks in audiences,’ said Lucy Seal, researcher and curator for the project.<\/p>\n
‘A measure of her artistic potential and success will be the discussion she inspires.<\/p>\n
‘Engaging people so we feel empowered to re-imagine our attitudes to organic life and our futures are a major aim of the project.’<\/p>\n
