Artificial Inteligence


With the ever more prevalent usages of artificial intelligence and simulation, Ian Cheng utilizes this future technology and builds on it. Since 2012, Ian Cheng (born March 29, 1984) has crafted art based on simulations where AI-based agents handle change. Cheng's technological skill uses imaginative talent to depict the place of artificial intelligence in an aesthetic scene. In numerous works, he reinforced his mastery of aesthetics and knowledge of vast technologies, even future ones. His simulations of artificial life forms, such as Emissaries, Bag of Beliefs, and Life After Bob, are examples.


Ian Cheng's Influence on Art

 

Artificial intelligence introduces powerful tools to expand the bandwidth of artistic potential. Ian Cheng uses A.I. to do just that, to revolutionize the way simulation works. Through his works, he seeks to develop his simulations by combining manually made and algorithmically generated content to create emergent behavior across an unlimited time frame.

 

Cheng's revolutionary approach to simulation defies the traditional framework of art itself. By employing computer simulations and algorithms to make his works of art, Cheng leaves the creative process to chance and randomness, allowing the piece to develop and change over time in ways that the artist would not have envisioned. Cheng's art questions the notion of the artist as a person in charge of their creation. 

 

Instead, his works of art exist as independent systems that can develop and alter under preprogrammed interactions and laws. Because of the artist's lack of control, the artwork might be more complicated and unpredictable.

 

Ian Cheng's animation "Life After BOB" illustrates a reality in which anomie rules, A.I. beings can cohabit with human minds, psychoactive meals combine physical and psychic realities into a fluid experience stream, and the internet penetrates our neural.
