THE ROBOT THAT QUESTIONS THE BALANCE BETWEEN AI AND HUMANS

When Ai-Da, the AI-powered robot, unveiled her portrait of King Charles III during the UK Mission to the World Trade Organisation and UN in reception in Geneva, she heated up the deepest AI debate unfolding across the world: what will happen if AI becomes too human?

It’ s one thing that Ai-Da can paint with her robotic arms and computer vision algorithms – but it’ s another that she can hold conversations. The robot delivers lectures at top universities and even addresses parliament.

“ My presence here reflects a shared journey into new forms of expression and the questions they raise about identity, authorship and the essence of art,” she says to the Geneva audience.
