What does it mean to be an artist when art becomes “content”?
A series exploring Generative AI from a different angle: artists feel ripped off from copycat training, scammers create deepfakes, and marketers produce images that feel close-but-frightening as minor inconsistencies emerge.
What does the machine see? How is our world encoded in these models? What is the role of the designer if art becomes pushbutton for the masses?
We start by asking nothing of our generation models. We curate the best images to highlight the beauty of uninhibited generation. In doing so, we begin to glimpse how our world is encoded in the model, and begin to redefine our role in this new artform.
Simply put, we let the machine dream.
