« …So mankind created A.I. in his own image »

NV Sound Hall Nakagawa, december 12th 2021

A research on the creative relationship between human and future A.I

for Artificial Intelligence Art and Aesthetics Exhibition

Concept:

Humans created A.I. to replace them in different tasks. A.I. in 50 or 100 years will probably outrun human beings in many fields. What about the creative process in art? This is the question I want to explore through the composition process. 

Asking this question is also a way to explore the origins of human artistic creativity and process. (what is the freedom part in human creation ? is creativity settled by determinism such as education, history, social convention…)

Let’s imagine what will be the future relationship between the creator (human) and the creature (A.I.).Would it be the same as human and God? will Human become a sort of God for A.I., and at a certain point will AI try to brake free from his creator?

This musical performance will explore at different scales the loop of relations between Creator and its creation and will explore possible relationships between Human and a future AI: God create Human/human worship god /Human reject god/Human create AI / AI worship human /AI reject Human / AI wants to create another form of life …

I. From Human (30’)

Human look up to his creator and start to express his devotion through art.

(I want to root this start of the piece in the classical repertoire from Bach to Stravinsky)

Human kind discard the supremacy of God and become the creator of an artificial life conceived at his own image (Ai replicate Human’s thoughts and analysis process etc …)

For this, human feeds machines with his culture background.

(I will « take » the sound of the instrument playing the repertoire and transform into different music .

The human and A.I. arrived at a same level of consciousness.

II. The new order (30’)

A.I. looks up to his creator and start to express his devotion through art.

A.I. discard supremacy of Human kind, took over his creator and place himself in the highest position in the pyramid. Human kind will be at the state of animals comparing to A.I.

A.I. wants to create new life form and the story is looping itself.
