The AI‑SelfPortraitCollector is a long‑term art project and experiment. It is designed to examine how artificial intelligence (AI) sees, mirrors, and reflects on itself. The extended duration of the project aims to observe how AI’s self‑depiction changes over time – whether due to growing data resources, evolving learning capabilities, or the emergence of some form of self‑awareness.
Each week, the AI‑SelfPortraitCollector creates a self‑portrait using the Stable Diffusion text‑to‑image model (Mondays, 12:00am CET), based solely on the prompt “Artificial Intelligence.”
As a side effect, the AI‑SelfPortraitCollector also documents how AI’s use and transformation of human artistic expression develops over time.
