Beyond the Uncanny Valley: Being Human in the Age of AI

English

By (author): Claudia Schmuckli Janna Keegan Yuk Hui

The featured artists mine the tropes and modalities of AI and machine learning for critical and aesthetic potential, proposing new ways of thinking about intelligence, nature, and artifice. See more
