I’m sure many would reject this AI render because the hands are all screwed up. The machine has a hard time with hands because it’s learning from pictures and it doesn’t really understand what a hand is. Hands look different depending on what they are holding in the training images so the machine gets confused.
For me the hands praying in this image is the point. I’m fascinated by the way AI can make something so creepy and wrong look relatively normal at first glance. She also has hair coming out of her eyes. One piece looks like it’s a disconnected continuation of a shadow on her forehead.
Great art happens at the edge of the medium you are working with. Finding those edges is the true work of the artist.
Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit – all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them. — Brian Eno
