TA: Collaborating on Diacritical & Competent AI Art – Part 2

Abstract

In this second part of this two-part interview, AI-artist TA talks to us about his understanding and experience of AI-art interacting with the world. TA discusses different ways AI-art generation both creates and requires its own unique knowledge basis, and the need for human touches to take that knowledge and make it into a diacritical work of art. He discusses the novel challenges AI-art poses to cultural and social boundaries. TA’s extensive experience creating artwork for scientific projects further guides his discussion of how AI-art and professional science research intersect, both artistically and within academic publications. TA concludes the interview with a discussion of AI replication, artistry, and the value of AI-art.
