Artificial Emotion – South Korea
Can artificial intelligence replace human emotion as well as intellect? This work originates from this fundamental inquiry. The creative process involves presenting photographs to an AI and prompting it to visualize the perceived emotions as humanoid figures. Through this experience, the audience is confronted with the profound gap between their own intuitive feelings and the machine’s algorithmic interpretation and expression.
