7:30 am
is journalist meats i sped lun, itsyana, sky, exiled leader of the opposition in bella, luce, of course, i am tied untied, physically untied, morally. is too much on my shoulders, but i have to hold this weight because i'm responsible for the future. follow contra for the people far behind the boss gardens of truth starts february 18th on dw artificial intelligence has taken the creative world by storm making things possible that artists could previously only dream of fin, must install, wasn't got them. and if machines are smarter than humans, the machine has the power. do we want to give the machines the power to control us? because i don't think so. want to lisa. oh. will algorithms to be doing the work of creative? will artists become redundant?
7:31 am
yeah, i think they are replacing artist plots. i don't think it necessarily bathroom where some see a great opportunity. others see an acute danger. i can be good and can be bad. like every technology with drones you can kill, you can amazed people and it's, it's our choice. what we do with i at the 2020 to venice b and ali ada caused quite a stir. she's the 1st humanoid robots to make her own art. with the help of artificial intelligence, her inventor, a british gallery director aden mellor developed her with a team of computer scientists, robotics experts and designers. ada perceived the environment through cameras in her eyes. algorithms processed the information and provide impulses for drawing the
7:32 am
robot and single handedly determines her creative output without any human intervention. is love us, mansion, i'm home. i think what fundamentally interests people about robotics and artificial intelligence is that it's like a replica of themselves lives. it has something akin to a divine function. good to hear from men and creating intelligence where i'm creating another human being mention. and i think that triggers the age old human longing to play god queens of dana got 15. ah, should we fear robots or welcome them? hello robot is the name of the exhibition at the vitro designed museum in the german town of by alum rhine. it focuses on our fascination with robots and artificial intelligence. a i for short, and the tense relationship between man and machine. austrian, emily climb curated the show, which has successfully toward the world. take
7:33 am
a look. he had the me and if hop fi, technology has quoted everything in our world like a thin layer of color, and that's just a fag turnville and there's no turning back now that the genie is out of the bottle . that's why we have to keep asking ourselves as individuals and as the society or how we want to implement this technology, they've been looking in. the industrialized world can no longer function without its intelligent machines. but the outlook for the coexistence of humans and robots, the swings between you, topic and dystopic, between hopes for a better mechanized world and fears that human agency will get lost. we, i'm in all of the standard. we have a robot who writes manifestos and exactly that intellectual work, as we know from politics or arg to the whole. but that robot is as dumb as a door knob at can did, knows the vocabulary, grammar, and syntax and but has no clue about what it's writing. hardly any other phenomenon
7:34 am
has captured the imagination of the movie industry as much as the vision of artificial beings. then not only have an uncanny human appearance, but also far superior abilities from metropolis to 2001 and blade runner to matrix science fiction films, including many blockbusters, have explored humanities. uneasy fascination with robot androids and artificial intelligence escaped field. philip ashby, live her constituents are so many examples of artificial intelligence if that of found their way into our brains and hearts through pop, culture shaping are image of robots and a i the things that's why we're always disappointed when we come across real a i or robots because they're usually nowhere near as cool as the ones we know from louise and bugs. but we're do the boundaries between a i and human creativity ly. will machines managed to crack one of the last mysteries and are increasingly technologies world how we feel emotions and turn
7:35 am
them into art? my tail crease, director of the vitro design museum is doubtful puter. martina can come in with pseudonym for machine cannot feel emotion, also debit torn for it, and no matter how much people insist that will eventually be able to produce cindy and machines, they won't have the emotions of a human being good. and those emotions are reflected in any good work of art, whether it's a painting, a design object or a great building autonomy. it's an irreplaceable factor is i'm fucked. jordan, they couldn't finish this. ah. but what can and can't machines learn artist leon lew than trout offer some insight . he started painting as a child in by the age of 16, was celebrated by the art world as a prodigy and sensation earning the nickname baby paccar. so he's one of the most
7:36 am
successful german painters under 30, and famously willing to chart new ground in their coin beneath. when foss, bush one does one, all i find it incredibly exciting to combine these 2 components for the one says that is pairing art with artificial intelligence. when in order to bring the art to another level and break new grounding, making it even more innovative. he gets to gain could no innovative us and of course also to keep up with the time said site. so good, lay on live and trout is taking part in a study that investigating the question, what do artists feel when they paint what goes on in their brain during the creative process? for this purpose, the master class of the virtual design program at kaiser lout on university of applied sciences measures his brain waves. neuro feedback shows that when he's painting, he enters the kind of trans that everybody who's dog know foster comes. i know we captured data from his movements and brain waves and the brush strokes he made
7:37 am
a fast ram. thousands of we recorded sounds and basically everything that could be turned into numbers when davosto and then we used algorithms to create data from all of that to visualize the image is what is his wife and immersive spatial installation has been designed using the collected data. the artist creative process can be experienced by means of an interactive surface. this gives the public a haptic sensation of how it feels. it is not thinking indian can keep and put it thought that goes into the creative process. the abstract expression and energy. i always have approaching, my painting is something that many people underestimate the unsafe thing, thus i offered the physical toll it takes on the body, but also on the brain. oh, good. so it's really a massive effort, mentally, as well. doing this intensive creative work for hours on end. such boston,
7:38 am
docile intensive. so our bible ah, in the future the artist could possibly save himself all that effort. because artificial intelligence will make it possible to generate algorithms of leon live and trials, creative process and visual language. using data obtained from the study and produced images in his style. as gifted begin audiology between nuclear, there are parts of the brain that maps certain creative work and processes leo installed into. so theoretically you could have leon's, dreams interpreted and generate an image of them the next morning and bus in the not good oriented. but leon live in trouts creative process is still that of a typical artist. he draws sketches and applies acrylic paint to the canvas without high tech, but with dedication and passion. but could a, i create something similar or even better. moment talk with his for hope 9 right now i would say no, not yet. oh,
7:39 am
but i'm careful about predictions as to what might happen in coming years beyond plus years because a i is absolutely powering ahead and i reckon this whole topic will be surprising us a lot about us women and team often. so what would art made by a i looked like a brand new. rembrandt spat out by a computer in 2016. a new painting by the dutch master was unveiled created with a i and fed with data from 346 of his works. a team of programmers, designers, and scientists from the dealt university of technology and a i, experts from microsoft, developed countless algorithms to calculate proportions colors. shien light and shadow and substance with u v inc from a 3 d printer like oil on canvas, 148000000 pixels amounted to a portrait of a man between 30 and 40 years old with
7:40 am
a beard, hat and color. an amazing result, but is it really art dutch artist lanika go dine, uses a i to explore relationships between humans, nature and technology. i believe that art is a reflection on society and poses a question. and i think a, i can also ask questions, but are they still meaningful? i think artists will reflect probably on a i and that will be totally true art. the sad thing about artificial intelligence is that it lacks artifice. and therefore, intelligence much has changed since john boldly art made this statement. in 2018, the painting edmund of elemy became the 1st a i generated artwork on the market, painted by an algorithm fed with 15000 portraits from various periods. it was the
7:41 am
1st ai artwork to be sold by christies. it earned some $433000.00 for the french art collective obvious, which provided the invented, develop me family tree gold frames and the algorithmic formula in lieu of an artist signature. but when the machine is trained on millions of images and sophisticated algorithms create works of art, who deserves the credit a i, the programmer and the board, the art and artist that provided the data. like picasso, rembrandt or van go a i art raises many questions, not just ethical and legal ones for vincent breds who teaches at the berlin university of the arts. it's the myth of the artist that matters. the blemish and bid call her when his wife was one buske, yet if i buy a painting knowing it's my boss got one, i'm more willing to spend
7:42 am
a lot of money and look at it for hours. imagining him painting it in new york area than if i see exactly the same picture knowing it was only created by a computer algorithm, but i don't just look at the pure results, but i buy the story and the person a little little closet keegan, schuster depends wouldn't be submitted, but what exactly does an algorithm create? what can a i do? a, i is the machines ability to imitate logical thought and creativity. once unique to humans, robots and machines are the hardware. while a i is the software standing in for the brain. machine learning allows a i to continually develop, improve, and deliver results on its own almost in real time. humans 1st be the a large amounts of data in the form of algorithms, rules that telecom shooter what to do. the technology brings an unprecedented level
7:43 am
of speed, precision and efficiency. but what about creativity? clobbered us transmission till again, i don't believe that artificial intelligence will replace the emotions of art and creativity any time soon and come abuse of an excess to be teeth, often fussy, and include this pure creativity comes partly from encounters with different cultures. and people and journeys fuel and you didn't mention didn't fall on, and the artist brings all these emotions to the canvas. so i don't think i will ever completely replace the human artist couldn't star as it's invert. like a child, a eyes. first artistic endeavors were doodle. british artist, a computer scientist harold cohen, 1st developed in a i controlled drawing machine in the early 19. seventy's. aaron imitates human hand movements with a robot and paints its own pictures. the 1st simple shapes were in black and white since the 19 ninety's more complex and in color. over 40 years until his
7:44 am
death in 2016, harold cohen developed his art and technology raising the question. if what erin is making is not art, what is that exactly? i said then that being the key and can and even if we can create pictures that are super forward or realistic or look like van gogh or other works that look completely original and groundbreaking diving. ultimately, we are also discussing the question of what's real and what isn't tal and if hi good by this, how can we create our own work? and you said i'm, it was lifted, people are bad. so how can a i be used as a creative tool? recently a has been advancing rapid in the field of image processing and generation freely available. texture picture systems like does e and mid journey have caused
7:45 am
a collective earthquake? it has never been easier, faster or cheaper to create digital images up at the berlin university of the arts. vincent brits discusses the latest developments with the students in the artificial creativity seminar. doubtless come on disinfect, you can compare it a bit to when there was only classical painting. and then suddenly the 1st photographer's appeared with often dug up and there was certainly resistance. and people said it was an art, it was a photo, plagiarism, whatever. huh. hm. and then over the years and decades, the idea of a photo artist became established in con, i think it'll be the same with artificial intelligence and fine, ah, artificial intelligence can colorize historical film footage in seconds. but the programs show their limits when it comes to processing complex artwork. the problem with this, i think, is that for example,
7:46 am
if it's like an artistic video and the grass was pink because you painted at pink because it was an odd movie, would make a green because it's basically just working on an average right now. complex image processing, like shading and lighting, is no problem for the latest generation of a i based graphics programs. what used to take hours or days can now be done in seconds. this is a to dispute, wallace does. it's threatening, of course that more and more people can generate an infinite number of images and the images i spend a lot of time creating no longer have the same value. like but at the same time, they're just tools to master and use wisely and embed in larger concept. signed programs like dully or mid journey or disrupting the traditional creative process. the tools are impressively user friendly enter text into the program. in a i spits out the command as an image. creativity has no limits. even of the artist
7:47 am
to quality is sometimes doubtful. as a consumer perspective or as an artist, i find it more liberating and empowering to have new ways and tools to generate new imagery and new things. i still see it more as an opportunity and as a does a mad swans the gun on this one responding victim. it's exciting that a designer no longer has to think about how to draw a picture. i instead you think about how to best describe it. so the computer can draw it lively, it's more or less the same job with that, but a completely different approach. but it does have a drop of guns and onions by the photos of people who don't even exist. every single pixel created by ai and dissembled from millions of photos of real people from the web of the vintage of some vice via fungi, m. facebook. imagine i download all the pictures from your facebook profile and load them into artificial intelligence in it and tell it to create your picture.
7:48 am
the lucky nissan of the i does no more than look at these pictures and generate an image of you that's about it doesn't process an existing image in a bit of an each pixel is based on the photos of you, but as its own creation, it was 9 and then it becomes difficult to discuss privacy rights, visa, pessimist cuts, good. the students have concerns about data protection, copyright and ethical issues. and of course they worry about a threatening their own careers. i cannot compete with this kind of intelligence. it will always be flawless, it will be always faster. on the other hand, they're our personality and our humanity. and our in perfectionists, is actually what makes us sometimes better from this kind of an artificial intelligence. what an ai can develop its own creativity. how does a i influence us?
7:49 am
who's controlling who these were among the questions, addressed in a 2022 production at dresden opera house. the sample opa chasing waterfalls is the 1st opera with a libretto and score co written by artificial intelligence. and featuring a virtual voice and impressive showcase for the technology, but humans, we're still in charge. right now we use mainly algorithms with a lot of different data inputs. but we still have some sort of control and i find it really hard to think of a situation where the control is gone. but then also for me, the meaning is gone. deploying a, i can be useful in the museum, for example, at the bell house archive in berlin. the company art plus com used a i to make the comprehensive collection visually accessible. museum visitors can use a touch pad to navigate their way through 15000 images. fully immersing themselves
7:50 am
in the archive. berlin bay studio on formative makes 3 d models with a i, the process of what it calls a i sculpting. it's sold by humans, but not the result. the project demonstrates that artificial intelligence augments its learning quickly, improves continually and delivers unforeseen sculptures of equality that surprises, even the creators themselves. once the computer is got control, we might never get it back. if we're lucky, they might decide to keep us as pets. entire galaxies of artificial intelligence float above the compound of the u. s. space agency nasa, an artwork developed by lanika gore, dine, and ralph nowadays of studio drift with the help of artificial intelligence. hundreds of drones swarm and patterns in the heavens. reflecting the natural
7:51 am
intelligence of a flock of birds flying admiration, studio drifts award winning work has been admired all over the world. studio drifted phased in amsterdam. the 2 artists work at the interface between technology and nature. together with a 70 member team. delicate, complex sculptures of light are created out of dandelions that have been fitted with elite ease. studio drift creates art that shows high tech can be beautiful and poetic. if you think about the classical artist, you know, making imagery or i yeah. working in a way that reflects to boss styles the i think i are replacing artist barts. i don't think is necessarily a bad thing. you know, because artist, in my opinion, good artist sugars should create
7:52 am
a new vision of the future. studio drift also provided airborne art for the 5th anniversary of the l philharmonic in 2022. more than $300.00 drones rose into the night sky and sparkled above hamburg. the concept of delight installation was inspired by the location and architecture of the iconic concert hall. unfortunately, some of the breaking waves stars literally made a splash, where they're due to external influences or technical problems. during the rehearsal 15 drones fell into the water at the premier, 5 more fell to earth. further performances of the light show were cancelled for safety reasons. every one involved was disappointed. everything that is digital can develop a really fast because she can feel without real consequences because she can make the failures in a safe environment. but actually creating, ah, you know,
7:53 am
an impacts of a i, in the real world that is way harder and we as risk artist, no doubt, and our process our way slower. because we only make physic work and that have to be saved, that have to be maintained and have to work for very long periods of time. studio drip is now working on a commission from google quantum ai. the aim is to visualize how a quantum computer works. it processes millions of times faster than a conventional p c. the reason for its speed is that it carries out calculation steps simultaneously rather than in a sequence. a bit like a tree with many processes like growth and photosynthesis, taking place at the same. i'm a is limitless. there's no limit that's, that's the scary parts. like we, we can't comprehend what it can become. you know, like there's no control 0. it is a form of evolution, it's just like
7:54 am
a next life form that we, we can't imagine what it is like, a monkey cannot, cannot imagine. our skill set than what we can become like same for us with a are google quantum a i is based in santa barbara, california, highly sensitive quantum computers are developed here in this high security compound, the mega computers, enormous processing capabilities and speed will play a major role in the field of artificial intelligence in the future. they can already solve problems that will take a normal p c, about a 150000 years to solve it's kind of like cheating in a way, as you know, i protest is of humans and the evolution of nature goes over millions of years. and this is just like skipping a couple of millions of years. artificial intelligence is the technology with unforeseeable potential. will it take us forward or annihilate us?
7:55 am
and what role will it play in art? will it remain a tool of creative or will it replace them at some point? will it not matter who, or what creates a work of art, human or machine like in a year to be surprised or some ai creating an art piece that you know is just so out there we like this is a whole new art style. yeah. but also next to that like, is that the right question to ask? like of who cares about arts? if we all, if we con existing is old anymore, because a are, is killing us to ensure a, i doesn't spin out of control. there need to be some guard rails, not just an art, but in politics to that's was mentioned, but we need to retain the work of humans. of course a robot might even be able to do better. but to i want that on the on. no, i don't. even if we humans are still flawed, i still want to negotiate with another human, to hammer out laws and a framework within which we can work with technology and mutation of
7:56 am
so will a, i beat us that our own game. will it make artists redundant? only time will tell, perhaps sooner rather than later. ah ah ah, with
7:57 am
a pulse with the beginning of a story. hm takes us along for the ride. it's all about the perspective. culture
7:58 am
information is d w. w made from mines. we depend on past totally depend on what, how we depend on all the suit that effect of climate change. climate activist need to sign up is fighting to protect her home in kenya, and not with weapons. 3 saplings, bank onto the wake up call for a call to action, which i think that the little hoping remaining was am with 90 minutes on the w. ah. hello guys. this is the 77 percent. the platform with issues and share ideas. you know,
7:59 am
on this channel we are not afraid to talk to and then he gets to talk to young. people clearly have the solution. good future to the 77 percent every weekend on d w. the only way i can be on the top is to create my own empire, discover a story with just a click away. majority the destination, right? size of this documentary is a, you've never seen it before. i can name tree with ah
8:00 am
ah ah ah, this is dw news coming to live from berlin, searching for earthquakes, survivors in turkey and syria. many people remain trapped and night after quakes devastated towns and cities across a wide area or than 4000 people are known to have died in syria, the effects of civil war complicating the rescue effort. the country's economy and infrastructure are already in tatters.
