In an eyebrow-raising milestone for art and technology, a portrait of British mathematician <keyword id="20716963" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="alan-turing" source="keywords">Alan Turing</keyword>, crafted by none other than Ai-Da — the world’s first <keyword id="23883869" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="humanoid-robot-artist" source="keywords">humanoid robot artist</keyword> — has skyrocketed <keyword id="23524646" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="AI-generated-art" source="keywords">AI-generated art</keyword> into the realm of high-end auctions. The piece, aptly titled A.I. God, fetched a staggering $1,084,800 at Sotheby’s Digital Art Sale, completely blindsiding initial estimates of $180,000. Ai-Da’s robotic fingers just created history, and people are scratching their heads trying to figure out how they feel about it. <h2>Meet Ai-Da</h2>Ai-Da isn’t your average paintbrush-wielding bot. Designed to resemble a human woman complete with expressive eyes and a bob of brown hair, Ai-Da does more than pose as an artist — she acts as a philosophical commentator on the very technology that powers her. Named after Ada Lovelace, the 19th-century mathematician credited as the world’s first computer programmer, Ai-Da’s artistic journey began as a project by Aidan Meller, a modern art expert. With help from AI wizards at Oxford and Birmingham universities, Ai-Da was equipped with tech that allows her to generate artistic ideas through conversations with her human counterparts. The result is a robot that doesn’t just paint but provokes. "The key value of my work is its capacity to serve as a catalyst for dialogue about emerging technologies," Ai-Da remarked at Sotheby’s. Her Turing portrait “with muted tones and broken facial planes” seems to symbolise the caution Turing himself had raised in the 1950s about AI’s future. Turing, a code-breaking legend and early computer scientist, had foreseen both AI’s promise and its potential perils. Ai-Da’s portrayal captures that conflict, mirroring today’s conversation: is AI here to serve us, or are we unwittingly feeding our own "god"? <h2>A moment in art history</h2>With A.I. God being the first artwork by a humanoid robot ever to be sold at auction, many see this sale as the dawn of AI’s full-fledged entry into the art world. Others, however, worry this is the beginning of a dystopian trend that could devalue human-made art. For every admirer of Ai-Da’s skills, there’s a sceptic pondering what this means for artists who pour their human soul into their work. As Aidan Meller sees it, Ai-Da is the ultimate artist for our time. "The greatest artists in history grappled with their period of time," Meller said, "and Ai-Da is perfectly suited to discuss the current developments with technology and its unfolding legacy." Whether we’ll look back on this era as a golden age of innovation or as the point where humans began their creative decline is up for debate. <h2>Public reactions</h2>As A.I. God smashed records, it also smashed open a Pandora’s box of mixed reactions. Art critics and tech enthusiasts are intrigued; social media is ablaze with questions about the role of AI in traditionally human spaces. Many are captivated by Ai-Da’s sophisticated process, which involved her choosing colours, textures, and even the tone of the painting after examining Turing’s photograph. But others are alarmed. If robots can generate million-dollar art, where does that leave human creators? Or, more provocatively, what happens when robots develop their own creative ambitions? The public perception of AI art is one big contradiction. On one hand, there’s an undeniable thrill in seeing a machine paint, compose, or even converse. There’s a fascination with this powerful new tool that seems both thrilling and dangerous. On the other, people worry about the commodification of creativity. In an era where everything is data, will AI art soon be mass-produced? Will human-made art become a quaint relic, like vinyl records or typewriters? Beyond the dollars and digits, Ai-Da’s work represents a fundamental question: what is art, and who — or what — gets to create it? Meller argues that Ai-Da serves as a mirror to our modern age, where every advance in technology is double-edged, carrying both promise and pitfalls. Ai-Da’s Turing portrait has sparked a conversation that won’t die down soon. Are we witnessing the rise of a new artistic epoch, or merely the latest novelty to captivate our tech-obsessed world?

This story was originally published on September 29, 2022.As artificial intelligence has gotten better, fears about our AI-enabled future have grown. Even <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/tech/dall-e-mini">small steps toward</a> more sophisticated AI have triggered concerns that robots <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/sep/08/robot-wrote-this-article-gpt-3">will take away human jobs</a> or that AI-generated deepfakes <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/people-applying-remote-tech-jobs-using-deepfakes-fbi-2022-6">will warp our sense of reality</a>.In the world of art, <a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/06/the-new-generation-of-ai-apps-could-make-writers-and-artists-obsolete">misgivings about AI</a> have been particularly acute. An AI-generated piece of art recently <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/ai-art-wins-competition-angering-artists-2022-9">won first prize</a> in a competition at the Colorado State Fair, leading to an outcry from artists and critics alike. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/aug/20/ai-art-artificial-intelligence-midjourney-dall-e-replacing-artists">Other experiments</a> with replacing illustrators and writers have caused similar handwringing.Despite this widespread apprehension, Holly Herndon — an experimental musician and artist — doesn't think AI is nefarious or will ruin art. These technologies are here to stay, she told me recently, and we might as well learn how to live with them."I think the best way forward is for artists to lean into developments with machine learning," she said, suggesting that they "think of ways to conditionally invite others to experiment with them."Last year, Herndon launched a project called <a href="https://holly.mirror.xyz/54ds2IiOnvthjGFkokFCoaI4EabytH9xjAYy1irHy94">Holly+</a>, a tool that enables other artists to make music using an AI-generated likeness of her voice. The works created using Holly+ are essentially vocal deepfakes sanctioned and encouraged by Herndon.Herndon's usage of AI shows a way forward for not just artists but also the rest of us. Instead of rejecting new technology, everyone from workers to businesses to amateur creators can learn to use these tools to make their lives easier or open up new creative avenues. By embracing AI, would-be skeptics can help to ensure the burgeoning technology is used for good, rather than leaving it to be shaped by ill-intentioned parties. This doesn't ensure a wholly positive outcome, but with projects like Holly+, Herndon highlights the advantages of a technology like AI, while proving it isn't a mere substitute for human creativity.<h2>From an AI 'baby' to deepfakes and crypto</h2>In Berlin, Herndon has made AI a recurring theme of her work over the past decade, experimenting with human-computer collaboration in her recordings and live performances. An early instance of this was her 2015 album, "Platform," which combined the organic qualities of the human voice with machine sounds and digital-processing techniques. For her 2019 album, "Proto," Herndon took this approach further by creating Spawn, an AI "baby" that merged her voice and the voice of her partner, Mat Dryhurst, into a synthetic female entity that provided additional vocals.<div type="image" title="Holly Herndon surrounded by mics." height="4454" width="3563" msid="100285619" hostid="261" sizebytes="1052832"></div>The Holly+ project synthesizes the insights that Herndon has gathered over a decade of engaging with AI, a process of inquiry that has included her earning a doctorate of musical arts at Stanford University's Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics. The core of Holly+ is straightforward: Anyone <a href="https://holly.plus/">can upload an audio file</a>, and the tool will create a new version with Herndon's processed voice, ready for download. In her <a href="https://holly.mirror.xyz/54ds2IiOnvthjGFkokFCoaI4EabytH9xjAYy1irHy94">blog post</a> announcing Holly+, Herndon said she envisioned a future where digitally created voices "soon become standard practice for artists and other creatives." A wide variety of music has been created using Holly+, from glitchy electronic tracks to ambient compositions to more conventional pop songs. Many of the tracks push the human voice to its limits, chopping Herndon's voice into nearly unrecognizable fragments or repurposing them as pieces of a sonic collage. Herndon has also used Holly+ in live performances, appearing at the Helsinki Festival with a local choir.While the project has yielded an ever-growing array of fascinating art, Holly+ also raises questions about the future of that art. If AI can replicate a unique voice like Herndon's, or mine the vast archive of existing human-produced content, then will it eventually replace humans' role in making that art going forward? And who owns the art that an AI model produces?<h2>Who owns what? </h2>AI's prospective influence on the art world is not without precedent. The ease of copying, editing, and distributing digital files today means that content can always change, frequently without any acknowledgment that it has been altered. Analog media, in contrast, is more difficult to modify, and doing so typically leaves a mark. Now, the official versions of songs are endlessly remixed, films and television episodes are <a href="https://www.insider.com/movies-tv-shows-changed-edited-september-11">altered</a> after their initial release, and text and images go viral as unattributed, ever-evolving memes. Sampling — reusing a portion of a song in another recorded song — has become a <a href="https://www.vulture.com/article/pop-music-regurgitations-switched-on-pop.html">staple of pop music</a> over the past few decades. "In the same way that trying to shut down sampling of media was a dead end, we have entered into an AI era where it will become effortless to generate media using someone's voice, face, or style." Herndon told me. As with sampling, she argued, AI presents a great opportunity for artistic play and innovation "so long as we can mitigate the economic shock of these powerful new tools."Holly+ highlights a few shocks that might come about, particularly around the ability for artists to control their intellectual property — the legal basis for copyright laws. It's hard enough to lay claim to the content you have created now, but emerging AI tools open up a new set of complications. Is an AI-generated image made in the style of a particular artist plagiarism, or is it an original product of the model that generated it? As AI models improve and become more deeply embedded in the digital world, artists will need to understand the nature of the IP they produce and devise strategies for retaining control of that IP."I started the Holly+ project because I think this is a generational opportunity to rewrite how we think about IP," Herndon told me. In the Holly+ announcement post, Herndon said, "There will be demand for official, high fidelity, vocal models of public figures."This is where crypto comes in: the blockchain technology that undergirds crypto allows users to precisely track ownership of digital files like songs and images, while establishing an indelible record of their origins. This enables artists to sell digital works and ensure they will always receive credit for creating them (even if the work itself is copied freely), while giving the works' buyers confidence that they can prove they have the original version — an ability that, in turn, makes them willing to pay more.<div type="image" title="Holly Herndon with the Holly+ logo overlaid in green" height="3996" width="5328" msid="100285620" hostid="261" sizebytes="1565278"></div>Crypto has thus allowed Herndon to help financially reward artists who create songs with Holly+, while receiving compensation herself. To do this, Herndon established a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/personal-finance/what-is-a-dao">decentralized autonomous organization</a>, or DAO, which is similar to a worker cooperative. Anyone who owns a specific DAO's crypto tokens becomes a member with voting rights. When other artists create work using Holly+, they can submit it to the Holly+ DAO, whose members vote on which submissions are good enough to be turned into nonfungible tokens and sold via an <a href="https://auction.holly.plus/">auction process</a> — think of an NFT as the definitive "original" pressing of a song. (Anyone can use the Holly+ voice tool itself without submitting the output to the DAO, however.) Like a company's shareholders, the members of the DAO benefit from the overall quality of the Holly+ brand via the value of their tokens. Herndon <a href="https://holly.mirror.xyz/54ds2IiOnvthjGFkokFCoaI4EabytH9xjAYy1irHy94">says on her website</a> that DAO members "are incentivized to only certify or license new works that contribute to the value of the voice."This arrangement benefits Herndon by minimizing the incentives to make bad art with Holly+ or use her voice in a negative way, while relieving her of sole responsibility for managing the tool. The proceeds from each NFT sale are split among the work's creator, the members of the Holly+ DAO, and Herndon — an arrangement that reflects each party's contribution to a given piece. As AI continues to evolve and becomes more central to various creative enterprises, the DAO structure offers a way to credit participants more fairly and help artists retain more control over their work.<h2>AI isn't alien</h2>As technology continues to evolve, artists and creators must keep adapting. Herndon's work, especially Holly+, shows how creative people can approach developments like AI with an open mind, while maintaining a pragmatic awareness of the technology's drawbacks. She said: "Most AI processes we are familiar with now are groundbreaking ways of aggregating the products of human intelligence." In other words, AI can be another tool that artists use, instead of just a threat to their livelihoods. And working with AI can be fun. "I am in love with the submissions!" Herndon said of the works created with the Holly+ tool. "Artists have taken my voice in all kinds of directions. There are trains whistling at me, tender duets, and insane club tracks." Now, Herndon is taking the lessons from Holly+ to her new <a href="https://www.inputmag.com/culture/mat-dryhurst-holly-herndon-artists-ai-spawning-source-dall-e-midjourney">organization, Spawning</a>, which will equip other artists to reap the benefits of AI by using it to enhance their work, while protecting their IP from the threats it introduces. Herndon told me that the organization aimed "to help others take that leap and make their own decisions about how their voices and styles are used."While artists are among the first to seriously grapple with the implications of AI's cutting edge, the technology is likely to affect everyone — whether in their work or in another area of their lives. Holly+ and the Spawning organization both offer models for embracing technological change and making the most of it, rather than trying to resist or avoid it."I see how many things could go wrong," Herndon told me, "but I'm committed to creating ways to steer things in a better direction."<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/author/drew-austin">Drew Austin</a> is a technology critic, writer, and author of the newsletter <a href="https://kneelingbus.substack.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kneeling Bus.</a>

AI music could revolutionize the industry — and this artist is leading the way

<ul class="summary-list"><li>OpenAI, a company founded by Elon Musk, just made its DALL-E image generator open to the public.</li><li>Artists say they work for years on their portfolios and people can now make copycat images in seconds.</li></ul>Greg Rutkowski is an artist with a distinctive style: He's known for creating fantasy scenes of dragons and epic battles that fantasy games like Dungeons and Dragons have used. He said it used to be "really rare to see a similar style to mine on the internet."Yet if you search for his name on Twitter, you'll see plenty of images in his exact style — that he didn't make.Rutkowski has become one of the most popular names in AI art, despite never having used the technology himself.People are creating thousands of artworks that look like his using programs called AI-image generators, which use artificial intelligence to create original artwork in minutes or even seconds after a user types in a few words as directions.Rutkowski's name has been <a href="https://lexica.art/?q=Greg+Rutkowski">used to generate around 93,000 AI images</a> on one image generator, Stable Diffusion — making him a far more popular search term than Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Vincent van Gogh in the program."I feel like something's happening that I can't control," Rutkowski, who is based in Poland, told Insider. "My name is being used a lot to generate AI images, along with the names of other working artists."<div type="image" title="&quot;Dragon Cage&quot; by Greg Rutkowski." height="928" width="1920" msid="94894790" hostid="261"></div><div type="image" title="Images created when Insider typed &quot;Dragon battle with a man at night in the style of Greg Rutkowski&quot; into Stable Diffusion." height="1358" width="1372" msid="94894794" hostid="261"></div>AI-image generators create images that are unique, rather than collages pulled from stock images. A user simply types words describing what they'd like to see, referred to as "prompts," into a search bar. It's a bit like searching Google Images, except the results are brand-new artworks created using the text in the user's search terms as instructions.One of the most common prompts is to use the name of an artist to create something mimicking their style."People are pretending to be me," Rutkowski said. "I'm very concerned about it; it seems unethical."Simon Stålenhag, an artist and designer based in Sweden, told Insider that although he isn't against AI-generated art in principle, he does take issue with how some people are using the new technology. "People are selling prints made by AI that have my name in the title," he said. "Something like — 'Rusty Robot in a field in the style of Simon Stålenhag' — which is a super aggressive way of using this technology."He's seen people be hostile when they share an AI image in his style on social media. "People have tagged me and said that they're gonna make me lose my job or something like that, they're really harsh and aggressive," he said.He believes AI-image generators are "not in the hands of artists right now. It's in the hands of early adopters of tech."Rutkowski, who uses both digital tools and classic oil on canvas for his work, is worried that this explosion in imitation art means his style — which has seen him land deals with Sony and Ubisoft — might lose its value."We work for years on our portfolio," Rutkowski said. "Now suddenly someone can produce tons of images with these generators and sign them with our name.""The generators are being commercialized right now, so you don't know exactly what the final output will be of your name being used over the years," he said."Maybe you and your style will be excluded from the industry because there'll be so many artworks in that style that yours won't be interesting anymore."<h2>An explosion in imitation</h2>More and more consumers are using AI-image generators.OpenAI, which Elon Musk cofounded in 2015, made its <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-use-dall-e-online-ai-image-generator-art-2022-9">DALL-E image generator</a> open to the public in September. Before lifting the waitlist, <a href="https://openai.com/blog/dall-e-now-available-without-waitlist/">OpenAI said the program</a> already had more than 1.5 million users.Liz DiFiore, the president of the Graphic Artist Guild, an organization that supports designers, illustrators, and photographers across the US, said the ease with which AI can copy styles could cause financial fallout for artists."Artists spend a lot of time throughout their career, and make a lot of income, on being able to license their images and being sought after specifically for their style," she said."So if an AI is copying an artist's style and a company can just get an image generated that's similar to a popular artist's style without actually going to artists to pay them for that work, that could become an issue."US copyright law only protects artists against the reproduction of their actual artworks — not from someone else mimicking their style.Some of the most popular AI-image generators — which include DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion — have policies in place to prevent consumers from using their products in certain ways. OpenAI, for example, <a href="https://labs.openai.com/policies/content-policy">prohibits the use of images of celebrities</a> or politicians.All three programs block users from creating "harmful content" by filtering things like nudity and <a href="https://midjourney.gitbook.io/docs/content-and-moderation-policy">gore</a>.Insider asked representatives from DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion if they have any measures in place to prevent images being created that mimic the style of working artists.A representative for Stable Diffusion said the company was working on an opt-out system for artists who don't want AI programs to be trained on their work.The spokesperson added that an artist's name "is only one component of a diverse set of instructions to the AI model that creates a unique style that is different from an individual artist's style."Representatives for Open AI did not specify any measures in place to protect living artists but said the company would seek artists' perspectives as it expanded access to DALL-E.Midjourney didn't respond to Insider's questions.<h2>AI data training</h2>AI-image generators "train" by learning from large sets of images and captions. Representatives from OpenAI said both publicly available sources and images licensed by the company make up DALL-E's training data. Representatives for Stable Diffusion said the program uses web crawls to gather information and images. Rutkowski thinks living artists should have been excluded from the databases that train the generators."I'm not against the AI overall, I think it's a good technology. But I think they should have excluded artists' names from the program," he said.Another designer and illustrator, RJ Palmer, <a href="https://twitter.com/arvalis/status/1558623546879778816">dubbed</a> the generators actively "anti-artist" on Twitter because he said they are "explicitly trained on current working artists."Artists can check if their work has been used to train AI programs on a website called Have I Been Trained, which the German artist Mat Dryhurst and the American sound artist Holly Herndon created. The pair have been working on tools to help artists opt-out of AI data-training sets. The website filters through around 5.8 billion images that are in the dataset Stable Diffusion and Midjourney use to train their programs.Other artists feel they should have been asked for consent for their images to be scraped for the data used to train AI generators.Stålenhag said it would have been nice to be asked if he could be included in the training data, but said it was an inevitable consequence of putting art on the internet. "I see it as being very similar to how artists already work," he told Insider. "We do copy other people's ideas and styles and designs, and we take stuff," he said, noting that he also doesn't think AI art is good enough quality to be a "threat" at present."There's a hype around AI that I think is weird because I just don't think that it's very good," he said. "I don't see it as a threat because the visuals are not as good as what artists can create."<h2>Copyright laws around AI images are murky</h2>It's unclear whether copyright laws will protect the new artwork that AI programs generate."Copyright issues around AI is probably one of the biggest areas that we are focused on," DiFiore said, adding that it is still "a very gray area."Some stock-image libraries, such as Getty Images, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2022/9/21/23364696/getty-images-ai-ban-generated-artwork-illustration-copyright">have refused</a> to carry AI-generated artwork due to the uncertainty around copyright and commercial use.A spokesperson for the US Copyright Office told Insider that works generated only by artificial intelligence lacked the human authorship necessary to support a copyright claim.They said the office would not "knowingly grant registration to a work that was claimed to have been created solely by machine with artificial intelligence."But it's unclear whether a person entering search prompts into a program to create an AI artwork counts as a human-AI collaboration.Representatives for Stable Diffusion said while images created can be used for commercial offerings, the company wasn't able to say whether the images would be copyrightable. They added this decision was up to individual nations at the legislative level. Representatives for OpenAI said they think images generated by their programs can be copyrighted for commercial reasons. A spokesperson from OpenAI said: "When DALL-E is used as a tool that assists human creativity, we believe that the images are copyrightable. DALL-E users have full rights to commercialize and distribute the images they create as long as they comply with our content policy." They added that "copyright law has adapted to new technology in the past and will need to do the same with AI-generated content."Despite reservations, the technology's potential also excites many artists.Giles Christopher, a London-based commercial photographer specializing in food and drink, uses DALL-E and other AI-image generators to experiment with portraits and create artificial backgrounds for some of his commercial shots."I've come out with images that you wouldn't question are photographs," he said. "Some of the arguments I've had from photographers are that the images are looking too good."<div type="image" title="AI portrait of an old man with character" height="2000" width="1333" msid="94900134" hostid="261"></div>He thinks the genie is out of the bottle when it comes to AI, and that artists should look for ways to include it into their work. "I have friends in the industry who will storm out of the room if I even bring up using AI," he said. But he's keeping an open mind. "I'm still on the fence. It's like keeping your enemies close," Christopher said.

Artists say AI image generators are copying their style to make thousands of new images &mdash; and it's completely out of their control
