On October 11, 2022 in England, an event that might be called the first page of artificial intelligence (AI) history occurred when Ai-Da, a robot artist named following Ada. Lovelace, a prominent 19th-century mathematician, became the first robot to attend a meeting with senators along with the Communications and Digital Technology Committee in the British upper house.
A-Da appeared to help answer inquiries from senators on the future of art, design, fashion and the music industry. and predict what will happen when artificial intelligence technology impacts these fields. Of course, she went not only with one person, but with her team and who created her identity.
The A-Da robot was designed by Adan Meller, a specialist in modern and contemporary art, in collaboration with the University of Oxford. The figure was built by Engineered Arts in Cornwall, England.
A-Da has cameras installed in both eyes and uses computer algorithms to create her “human” personality.
Still, she was not recognized as a “human” at this meeting. There’s also an incident where A-Da ‘power off’ causes her to fall asleep and the robot keeper has to come in to reprogram her.
However, A-Da was able to answer questions and provide some level of evidence supporting her reasoning. Questions must be entered in advance for A-Da to prepare an answer. Mellor explains that A-Da uses AI’s language model so she can respond like a human. But they may not be of the same quality as real people. In principle, Mellor is responsible for every word A-Da says.
A-Da explained to the senator that she was painting with a camera mounted in her eye. Use mechanical arms and algorithms to write poems. Together with the data network to analyze massive amounts of text. The structure and content examples are then used to recreate the poem.
A-Da said she had no direct experience. So I can’t tell how her method differs from using the human brain, but emphasizes that even if she is “inanimate”, she can still create art.
As for art creation, the A-DA robot uses a different algorithm than poetry, she said. Technology is already heavily involved in the creation of commercial art, such as the use of cameras and Photo and movie merging technology And it is likely that this will continue in the future.
A-Da said there was no clear answer at this time whether the trend would have broader impacts than it does. Because technology can be both an opportunity and a threat to an artist’s work.
for example These AI-powered robots or programs help artists when it comes to mundane tasks, such as composing short commercials, but at the same time putting artists who have taken the profession to make a living for themselves. There is a risk that they may not have a job. which is likely to become more and more possible
According to Dan Conway, executive chairman of the British Book Publishers Association, AI robots can also write books. Although it is not yet to the point where it is possible to write a literature that captures the reader’s attention. But it can write a lot of books that don’t require much quality at a time. It can help get rid of poor writers.
At present, the robot does not own the copyright to the created work. because according to British law Works that can be copyrighted must be “Originality” (Originality), which is a unique feature that can be created by humans. But the robot still can’t do it.
At the same time, many copyrighted works are being used to ‘train’ these artificial intelligences. which is legal As long as the activity is under research or educational purposes. non-commercial
It is expected that in the future there will be a new area for creating art by AI robots, but at the same time, we have to consider the problems that may arise. which is to protect the careers of human beings in the same field as well
