Artist Statement:
The aim of this artwork is to let the audience feel “brackish waters of fictionality and reality” by seeing AI-generated history. In the real world, humans train AI with human-generated data. But AI trains humans with AI-generated data in this artwork. AI becomes smarter by learning. Their intelligence might surpass that of hu- mans. When AI acquires more advanced knowledge than humans, will people, in turn, learn from AI? And will we unilaterally accept the AI-generated information without verification of the truth? This artwork anticipates the possible future experience. As AI in- filtrates our lives, the information generated by AI is increasing exponentially. In this work, a zoetrope is used to show how the history of AI is being generated as AI generates images, and we can do nothing when we see AI creating its own history with its own generated images. We can only accept the information as it is presented to us. This work shows how we are immersed in this “brackish zone of fictionality and reality brought about by AI”.
