“The core value of my work is its ability to serve as a catalyst for dialogue on emerging technologies,” said the robot, which speaks through AI.
According to Ai-Da, the “portrait of pioneer Alan Turing invites viewers to reflect on the divine nature of AI and computing while considering the ethical and societal implications of these advances.”
The ultra-realistic robot resembles a woman with big eyes and a brown wig, and is one of the most advanced in the world.
Ai-Da is named after Ada Lovelace, considered a computer pioneer, and was designed by Aidan Meller, a specialist in modern and contemporary art.
This robot, which uses AI to create paintings or sculptures, has cameras in its eyes and bionic hands. It moves and expresses itself autonomously, without human intervention.
Alan Turing, a mathematician and cryptologist during the Second World War, considered one of the fathers of computing, had been concerned about the future uses of AI since the 1950s.
