AI/ Umělá inteligence

• machines that mimic cognitive functions (AI/ AGI (General Intelligence))

• “AI is whatever hasn't been done yet.” (Maloof, Mark. "Artificial Intelligence: An Introduction)

• Artificial intelligence was founded as an academic discipline in 1956, and in the years since has experienced "several waves of optimism"

• A. Turing&neurobiology, information theory and cybernetics > electronic brain

• McCulloch and Pitts' 1943 formal design for Turing-complete "artificial neurons"

• 1997: Deep Blue, 2011: Watson (Jeopardy!), 2016: AlphaGo

Memo Akten

An artificial neural network making predictions on live webcam input, trying to make sense of what it sees, in context of what it’s seen before.

It can see only what it already knows, just like us.

Blackberry Winter

We investigate the possibilities to identify motion as a continuous walk in a latent space of situations. Blackberry Winter is a triptych of artificial human motion in asymmetry. We developed three different choreographies of human bodies and their ongoing neural relationship in reference to each other, using our custom machine learning solution to weave spatial information into contemporary GAN technology.
