The 1975 Ai Da responds to Yeah I Know

Yeah I Know from The 1975s new album, Notes On A Conditional Form. Out now The 1975 and Ben Ditto have curated an online exhibition of 15 artists responding to tracks from NOACF. 07 AiDa responds to Yeah I Know AiDa, the worlds first humanoid AI robot artist, is capable of drawing people from life using her robotic eyes and hands. For this piece however, shes been set a more challenging task: to sketch out an impression of consciousness. Stood in her studio in Oxford in a painting smock, with Yeah I Know playing on the stereo, she composes her abstract portrait in coloured paint pens. The result is a picture of knowing, of thinking, of having a mind, whether biological or artificial. Of consciousness itself. Using her AI language model, shes also written a poem that responds to singer Matty Healys lyrics. When he sings a line, her response flashes up on the screen in bright turquoise. Stop the tube, Kick the head, sings Matty.
