Artificial intelligence and machine learning are fast becoming part of everyday life. Based on AI models currently used, among other things, in content moderation and surveillance, the artworks explore the “latent space” of the AI as it processes and imagines the world for itself, dreaming in the areas between and beyond what it has learnt from us.
Latent Space has been created by an artificial intelligence (AI)—an algorithm used to generate images based on how the human brain works to make sense of data. The AI was trained by inputting 14.2 million photographs. Once it has built neural connections to comprehend the data it can begin to dream in the areas between and beyond what it has learnt from us: a digital abstracted subconscious conceiving of new images and visualizing a “latent space”.
