AI Artist Autonomously Selected 3,073 Pieces Without Human Intervention
AI Artist Autonomously Selected 3,073 Pieces Without Human Intervention
馃 AI Chose 3,073...
Pete's groundbreaking vision explored what happens when AI becomes the true artist, operating completely independently through GAN models and datasets.
The AI system made autonomous creative choices, selecting exactly 3,073 pieces with zero human intervention - a remarkable feat that remains impressive today.
Historical context: Five years ago, GumGum sponsored a Turing Test pitting an Agentic AI system against 5 human artists. The AI's work received the fewest votes, meaning it scored as the most human.
The Agentic AI handled everything from:
- Managing photoshoots
- Deciding when paintings were complete
- Over 24 AI agents working without human decisions
This represents a significant milestone in autonomous AI creativity, where the machine truly acts as an independent artist rather than just a tool.
Pete's vision and curious inquiry on "what if" the AI is the artist, and runs unhindered through the GAN model, the dataset, and somehow is making choices - which it did by picking 3073 pieces "only", with no human intervention... that's really cool even now, and even more so
What the Renaissance was to human perception, DeepBlack may be to machine vision: the first time it tried to make sense of the soul.
馃 AI Art Archivist Jedi Documents Blockchain's Clunky Early Days
**Collector Jedi (@randomcdog) emerges as key archivist in Early AI Art space** Jedi isn't your typical NFT collector - he's documenting history. His **UndertheGAN section** dives deep into the messy, experimental intersection of AI and blockchain technology. **Key focus areas:** - Exploring nuances of early AI art - Documenting clunky blockchain implementations - Bridging classical and digital art collecting **Recent spotlight:** OpenSea featured Jedi in their collector interview series, discussing his UnderTheGAN and overeXposed collections. The collector approaches the space with **passion and purpose**, focusing on early AI pioneers rather than hype-driven trends. *His work preserves the experimental phase when AI art first met blockchain - capturing both successes and failures of this technological convergence.*
Historic Art Arbitrage Opportunity Emerges in Crypto Space
A significant **arbitrage opportunity** has emerged in the art world, being described as potentially the "biggest arbitrage in art history." The opportunity appears to involve **cultural relics** and has caught the attention of prominent figures in the space, including @RaoulGMI. **Key Points:** - Historic scale arbitrage opportunity identified - Involves cultural artifacts and art pieces - Gaining traction among notable crypto personalities - Could represent major market inefficiency This development suggests a **significant pricing discrepancy** between traditional art markets and digital/crypto art valuations. The opportunity may be time-sensitive given the nature of arbitrage situations.
DeepBlack AI Art Series Continues with GMTango and Tea Bag Collections
DeepBlack, a pioneering AI artist on Ethereum, continues their artistic exploration with new pieces in the GMTango series, featuring abstract interpretations of flowers and particle accelerator imagery. The work maintains their signature half-clean aesthetic. A notable earlier piece from 2025 includes Tea Bag 01:epoch10, generated from the artist's own tea bag photographs using GAN technology. - Collection limited to 3,073 pieces - All works minted on Ethereum blockchain - Combines AI algorithms with fine art aesthetics *Historical significance*: DeepBlack represents one of the earliest examples of end-to-end AI artistry in the NFT space.
