London-based artist, Andrea Bonaceto, is an NFT visual artist often inspired by the vitality of facial expressions and abstract forms. Bonaceto's exhibition, entitled 'Artificial Intelligence,' is a collaborative project between himself and the advanced AI humanoid robot Sophia. Bonaceto worked alongside Sophia to create a series of portraits. Andrea would design portraits of his family and friends and then pass these images on to robot Sophia, who would then process the images using her advanced Neural Networks and recreate the portrait without any human intervention. Thus producing two portraits of the same person - one done by Bonaceto and the other by Sophia.
The exhibition is thought-provoking, leading, and slightly unsettling. It raises critical questions about artificial intelligence and how it will shape the future of the world.
