Alan Turing’s “Haunting” robot-made picture is anticipated to bring at least $120,000 at auction.

A breathtaking 7-foot work of the humanoid robot entitled “AI God,” also named Ai-Da, is to go up for auction at Sotheby’s, the famous house. It is supposed to be an image of Alan Turing, deceased and one of the fathers of the computer, with inventive research and contributions generally thought of as laying the groundwork for modern artificial intelligence.

The ultra-realistic robot artist Ai-Da is known as the first of its kind in the world and creates art in her own peculiar manner. At the mercy of her delicate hands, tiny lines spring up to make up the entirety of an image.

Ai-Da is the brainchild of the British art dealer Aidan Meller, the robot manufacturing company Engineered Arts, and researchers at Oxford University. She “watches” the canvas through special cameras in her eyes that catch the visual information and relay it to high-powered algorithms in artificial intelligence that help her create. To date, Ai-Da has created a number of striking portraits, including those of Queen Elizabeth II, musician Paul McCartney, and pop star Billie Eilish.

But Ai-Da also has, besides these artistic skills, the basic linguistic ones: an internal AI model enables her to understand and respond to simple questions. The purpose of Ai-Da is to bring attention to the “tensions” and complexities found in our increasingly AI-driven world. She dares people to consider what is digital versus what is physical, or where the line lies between human creativity and the creation of machines. Graying the line between a creation made by a human and a creation made possible by artificial intelligence, the auction of “AI God” celebrates the artistic capability of not just a robot but raises pertinent questions on artificial intelligence’s role in our lives.
