How Can Humans Use Artificial Intelligence Create Visual Art?

Superior Essays
Technology has been rapidly developing in the past decades. Compared to half a decade ago, technology has grown at a faster rate. Humans use technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to make tasks easier and aid humans; but, can artificial intelligence do more than aid humans? Can humans use artificial intelligence for something less mechanical and more organic, such as visual arts? Yes, at the rate technology is advancing, artificial intelligence will be able to create fine arts as skillfully as humans. In the future, artificial intelligence will be able to understand human thought and emotion to create visual art.
Artificial intelligence is defined as “machines using language, form abstractions and concepts, solve kinds of problems now

AI is divided into three calibers: artificial narrow intelligence (ANI), artificial general intelligence (AGI), and artificial superintelligence (ASI) (Andros). ANI is called the weak AI with the ability to only perform one task. If an ANI was programed to identify a specific breed of dog, cat, or bird, the ANI will accurately identify the specific animal. When an ANI is programed with its one task, the AI cannot learn or do anything else, but, the task it is programmed to do is done well (Andros). ANI may be able to create art, but ANI would be limited to the one specific thing it was programed to create.
Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is called the strong AI with the ability to “perform any intellectual task a human being can” (Andros). An AGI could be programed to identify specific animals, but the AI is not limited to only identifying animals. The AI could learn more animals to identify at any time, but it could also learn how to identify specific plants or how to draw the perfect circle. AGI does not have as many limitations as ANI, but AGI can learn new things in its development. The limitation AGI does have is a result of its human-level intelligence; AGI can only think or learn as much as a human

    Artificial Intelligence has been a staple of speculative fiction for many years now. Who can forget the murderous “HAL” (so named because each letter is one higher in the alphabet than IBM) from 2001: A SPACE ODESSY? But lately Artificial Intelligence, or “AI” to the techno-hipster set, has been going mainstream in a big way. Life always imitates art, and now IBM has indeed staked its future on AI in the form of their “Watson” product.…

    To think that the telephone was invented in 1876 by Alexander Graham Bell is mind-boggling, right? Today, in 2018, the technology is becoming so advanced that scientists are even creating artificial embryos. At the University of Cambridge in the UK, embryologists have developed mouse embryos using only stem cells (“You'll Want to Keep an Eye on These 10 Breakthrough Technologies This Year”). This is only one example of how technology has grown over the years. Unfortunately, as the sciences have expanded, so has the abuse and how people use it against others.…

    The difference in the meaning of AI and AGI come from the old definition and expectations of what AI was compared to the one we know today. There was a proposal made to research AI at Dartmouth College in 1955 which stated: The study is to proceed on the conjecture that every aspect of learning or any other feature of intelligence can in principle be so precisely described that a machine can be made to simulate it. (McCarthy, Minsky, Rochester & Shannon, 1955, p. 13) This idea of AI is the one we know today to be AGI. Unbeknownst to the researches at the time, the difficulty to implement the study was immense.…

    In many respects technology not only helps us complete tasks, but do them more efficiently. Technology is helpful in nearly every aspect of life, such as commuting to work and completing complex tasks. The artificial intelligence (A.I.) presented in society today and in Ray Bradbury's short story "The Veldt" both illustrate examples of ways in which technology can provide both benefits and detriments. Within “The Veldt” we see many examples of artificial intelligence from the nursery to the dining room table. These technologies prove helpful and practical in many respects, yet they also show threats to everyday life.…

    “Is it still AI when the task is to model human stupidity, or would only preventing its devastating consequences get an AI rating?” (Naggum, 2018). The question may raise a range of ethical questions. Quach explores the negative side to the recent development in artificial intelligence (AI) in her article, ‘How machine-learning code turns a mirror on its sexist, racist masters’ (Quach, 2018), She expresses a view that the data set or information learned and recycled by the AI may inevitably reflect the human bias, sexist and discriminatory mind set of the coders and users.…

    Andrew Conforto English 101: GW Professor Mazzaferro 9/14/17 Paper 1 (Rough Draft): Life in the “Robotic Moment” Sherry Turkle’s “Selections from Alone Together: Why We Expect More from Technology and Less from Each Other” is a commentary on the changing view of AI, or artificial intelligence, in our progressing society. Turkle’s argument is one based in ethical and philosophical roots and challenges our current definition of what it means to be “alive”. This issue becomes more pressing the more sophisticated, multifaceted, and versatile our robots and machines become. Our era, which Turkle coins as “the robotic moment”, offers a chance to redefine life to not only be limited by biological standards, but rather be based on a combination of…

    The way society thinks of Artificial Intelligence is absurd. Most people look at technological progress from a business perspective, namely, how can we profit from it. Some more pessimistic approaches may compare it to an uncontrollable snowball, where progress ultimately gets too fast and unstoppable. There are many ways to interpret the future of technology; however, Catherynne M. Valente proposes a new path for A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) that has not been explored yet.…

    Art has been a tool of self expression ever since the Stone Age, when humans first constructed petroglyphs along the walls of caves. Using solely their minds and finite resources, people were able to create images to describe their emotions, ordinary objects, and the world around them. Conveying their thoughts through artwork allowed many to enhance their perception of the world around them. With this in mind, the concept of art has expanded into a variety of mediums such as dance, music, architecture, performance, and literature. As a matter of fact, the term itself can generally be used to describe any article of creativity.…

    Artificial intelligence now, is restricted to simple programs, such as Siri for Apple, Cortana for Microsoft, and the Google app for Android. Though all is well, one small tweak to these “simple” A.I.s could spell mankind’s devastation. Renowned A.I. scientist and researcher, Steve Omohundro, have said that, “A.I.s are given basic drives (or goals) to achieve. No matter their task, whether their job is to the mine asteroids, pick stocks, or manage our critical infrastructure of energy and water, they’ll become self-protective and seek resources to better achieve their goals.” No matter their task,…

    The topic that is discussed is Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the science of mimicking human intelligence using computers. AI as a science, “surprisingly, tasks which we find hard, computers find easy and vice versa. Trying to understand why this might be is the scientific side of AI - it is the attempt to understand our own intelligence. In this way, AI cooperates with other sciences like psychology, and philosophy of mind, which tries to understand what it means to be human, and how we think. “(Artificial Intelligence.…

    Who Owns the Future Due to Artificial Intelligence (AI) having the ability to learn information at an exponential rate, it is very easy to believe that AI owns the future. There are two broad types of AI, soft and hard AI. Soft AI is not intended to mimic the human brain, soft AI could be used to make a difficult boss in a video game. Hard AI on the other hand is intended to mimic the human brain, and many experts in the field are scared of what will come from the evolution of hard AI (Baer).…

    A.I Artificial Intelligence, a film by Steven Spielberg, tells the Pinocchio-esque story of David, a robotic boy who goes on a journey, in search of a Blue Fairy, so that he can become a real boy and earn the love of Monica, his human mother. Dealing with the idea of artificial intelligence and the question of whether or not a machine can have a mind, this film touches on the philosophy of John. R Searle - whose main thought experiment, The Chinese Room, argues that no matter how a computer acts, there is no way that the computer could have the mind or consciousness to understand what it outputs; a computer is nothing more than a machine that is able to act out its programming. Although this movie was thoroughly entertaining and is absolutely…

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is the science that makes the machine intelligent, e.g. when the computer makes decisions in a similar way that human does. AI is applied in software or machines From the research I did, the scientists are investigating on two type of AI, one AI is that it has its own personality, it can acts as human, has own emotion, feel what human can feel and its own thinking, so singularity. And this AI has self learning program so it is like human can learn from experience. The other type of AI is like a program that process things automatically, it has kind of human intelligence like choosing the best option in a certain situation but it can not have its own emotion self learning that the human does. I have chosen AI because…
