RE: Artificial Intelligence And The Art Of Imperfection
First things first: :D :D :D @ "...give a glance, a quick sniff, or even some urine."
I have thought a lot about perfectionism from the psychological point of view. Here is my favorite quote about it, it can be applied to art too:
Letting go of perfection is where the perfection begins.
Like in art, I think that we tend fall in love much more often in persons who seem to be quite beautiful but with some small idiosyncratic flaws, than in persons who seem to be virtually perfect.
I believe that time will inevitably come when artificial intelligence will be able to create amazing art, but I think that it will never be able to literally feel it, even in millions of years, unless human life and AI somehow become merged.
Thanks :-)
I love that quote, and right up until writing this article I would have believed you, however scroll up and check out the link about AI art I put at the end. It really is quite amazing (the concept, not so much the art), and made me rethink my position.
Ah the merging of AI and humans, another musing in the making :-)

It is amazing that, although the AI art has just recently started, we already have (maybe not master but) some nice results. You are right, the AI will most certainly be able to produce stunning art in the future.
As per the feeling part:
As far as I understand, this is a method that teaches the AI to recognize art vs non-art based on examples. I'm quite doubtful that it will ever be able to really literally feel it, without being thought (programmed).
I'm very looking forward to your AI and humans merging musing! : )
