Do This AI Robot’s Self-Portraits Count as Art?

With the new surge in artificial intelligence’s abilities, more people are asking what constitutes art. AI images from text prompts in programs like DALL-E and Midjourney are everywhere these days and are constantly improving. The existence of an artificially intelligent robot named Ai-da also means we have to ask what constitutes an artist. Ai-da exhibited a series of self-portraits at London’s Design Museum last year, which you can see in the video below. She continues to create art so us mere mortals must confront how technology and creativity intersect.
