A.I. will impact the future and every aspect of our lives. Today’s technologies are transforming the entire notion of what it means to be human in the 21st century. We are now headed towards the inevitable deeper integration of the physical and digital universes, becoming one in the metaverse.

As a result of artificial intelligence’s ability to augment human capabilities, we’ve become the most informed and skillful generation. Yet, we’ve developed forms of troubling dependency that are also potentially threatening human autonomy. Although A.I. offers remarkable innovations, it also comes with serious concerns for mankind: modern warfare, massive job losses, increased socioeconomic disparity, mental illnesses... We may not yet be able to comprehend the entire scope of digital innovations as they are still developing under our eyes and remain imperfect. However, some answers might be found in those imperfections...

With this exhibition, we focus on showcasing how new technologies are continuously merging with human existence. Through their own artistic lens, the featured artists explore new media’s wide influence. Not only do they transform our lives, but they also consequently impact the way we create and understand digital art. It is useful for us to highlight a nuanced dialogue on how our future will be shaped by computerized innovations. Is A.I. learning from humans, or are humans learning from A.I.? We may not yet have the answers, though we hope for technology that reflects our values and enables us to practice creativity and free will.
