One of the most advanced robots in the world, Ai-Da is designed to resemble a female human and is named after Ada Lovelace, the world's first female programmer. It was created by Aidan Miller, a contemporary art specialist.
According to the AI artist, this portrait of Alan Turing invites viewers to reflect on the godlike nature of artificial intelligence and computing, while considering the ethical and societal implications of these advances.
"The key value of my work is its ability to serve as a catalyst for a dialog about new technologies," said Ai-Da, who uses artificial intelligence to communicate.
