When the line between machine and artist becomes blurred

With AI becoming incorporated into more aspects of our daily lives, from writing to driving, it's only natural that artists would also start to experiment with artificial intelligence. In fact, Christie's will be selling its first piece of AI art later this month – a blurred face titled "Portrait of Edmond Belamy." The piece being sold at Christie's is part of a new wave of AI art created via machine learning. Paris-based artists Hugo Caselles-Dupré, Pierre Fautrel and Gauthier Vernier fed thousands of portraits into an algorithm, "teaching" it the aesthetics of past examples of portraiture. The algorithm then created "Portrait of Edmond Belamy."
