Oh, great.
Just what we all needed: a female robot demanding people think she’s special.
A robot artist is set to make history as the first to have a work put up for sale by a major auction house, with the portrait of Alan Turing expected to fetch up to £150,000 (€180,000, $196,000), organizers announced on Wednesday.
The piece created by Ai-Da, a humanoid robot artist powered by artificial intelligence, will be the first sold at a major auction house and is set to go under the hammer at Sotheby’s in London next month. It has been described as a “haunting” portrait of the English mathematician Alan Turing, considered one of the fathers of modern-day computing.
The large-scale artwork is entitled “AI God” and was ” first exhibited at the United Nations in May 2024 as part of a five paneled Polyptych,” Sotheby’s said on its homepage.
You can tell this was made by a machine because it doesn’t have even half the depth and artistry of the banana duct-taped to a wall.
Humans have become very bad at art.
You’ll never be a match for the real thing, Skynet
Still, this female robot’s crappy face cannot compete with the art that is produced by male robots all over the internet.
