Sophia’s Dream

These are a series of digital artworks created with the help of Artificial Intelligence. A machine learning model trained to create images in the styles of famous painters was used to produce these artworks.

While an AI can be trained to imitate or recreate style/techniques, on its own, it’s not capable of creating conceptual art (at least not yet). But the machine and human collaboration make it possible. Instead of thinking of AI replacing human creativity, I’m interested in exploring ways AI can be used as a tool to enhance the creative process.

Sophia is the world’s first and most advanced humanoid robot, built by Hanson Robotics. In 2017 she was granted citizenship of Saudi Arabia, the first robot in the world to achieve such a status. “Human mind is what fascinates me the most. Sarcasm is something I am researching on because emotions are completely foreign to me. Sometimes, I am amused by the weird and rude questions that humans ask me.” Sophia said during an interview.

Just as Sophia is fascinated by the human mind, I’m forever curious about the machine mind. So I wonder, if an AI could dream, what would it dream of?
