World’s First AI Art Gallery 世界上第一家实体展出AI艺术品的画廊

In recent years， many AI tools have developed the ability to write emails， book a trip and create artworks using simple information such as text prompts， photographs， etc. In 2023， the world’s first AI art gallery opened at Dead End AI Gallery in Amsterdam， Netherlands where all of the artworks were created using artificial intelligence.

Dead End AI Gallery features the artistic creations of AI machines and algorithms which range from digital paintings to interactive installations. Regarding the one-of-a-kind exhibition， Constant Brinkman from Dead End AI Gallery stated， “We are the first gallery in the world to physically exhibit AI-generated art.”

According to Brinkman， the first step in creating the exhibition saw programmers use software to create AI artists. Then these AI artists started generating their own artworks. While each piece they produce is unique， the pieces are not flawless. Some pieces feature people with six fingers， for example. But Brinkman says the AI artists are getting better with experience. Visitors can buy the paintings they like， but the AI artists determine their price. The price of a single work can range from 3，000 to 10，000 euros.

近年來，许多人工智能工具已经开发出了利用文字提示、照片等简单信息编写电子邮件、预订旅行行程和创作艺术品的能力。2023年，世界上第一家人工智能艺术画廊在荷兰阿姆斯特丹的Dead End AI 画廊开业，这里的所有艺术作品都是用人工智能创作的。

Dead End AI画廊展出了用人工智能机器和算法创作的艺术作品，包括数字绘画和互动装置。关于这一独一无二的展览，Dead End AI画廊的康斯坦特·布林克曼表示：“我们是世界上第一家实体展出人工智能生成的艺术作品的画廊。”

根据布林克曼的说法，搭建展览的第一步是程序员使用软件生成“人工智能艺术家”。然后，这些人工智能艺术家开始创作艺术作品，它们创作的每件作品都是独特的。这些作品并非毫无瑕疵，例如，有些作品中的人有六根手指。但布林克曼说，随着经验的积累，人工智能艺术家们的水平会越来越高。参观者可以购买自己喜欢的画作，画作价格由人工智能艺术家决定。单幅作品的价格从3000欧元到10000欧元不等。

The exhibition again raised questions about AI-generated art， whether it should be considered alongside human art， and whether it has the capacity to compete with human-created art. Earlier in 2023， researchers at Carnegie Mellon University created an AI-powered robot called FRIDA that is able to create original artworks on a physical canvas  as opposed to the digital canvas used by most AI artists.

However， the public’s reaction to AI art has been mixed. Some are wowed by what AI can accomplish， while others don’t think the pieces reflect real art and say that AI art infringes on copyright by using parts of already existing work.

Whether it is considered art or not， the AI gallery is certainly fueling the discussion about how technology can change the art world—specifically since the gallery believes that AI artists and their works will play an important role in the future of the art world.

该展览又一次引发人们对人工智能生成艺术的质疑，即人工智能生成的艺术是否应与人类艺术相提并论，以及人工智能生成艺术是否有能力与人类创造的艺术相抗衡。2023年早些时候，卡内基梅隆大学的研究人员制造了一个名为“FRIDA”的人工智能机器人，它能够在实体画布上创作原创艺术作品，而不是大多数人工智能艺术家使用的数字画布。

然而，公众对人工智能艺术的反应褒贬不一。一些人对人工智能创作的作品感到惊叹，而另一些人则认为这些作品不能体现真正的艺术，并且表示人工智能艺术使用了已有作品的部分内容，侵犯了版权。

无论人工智能创作的作品是否被视为艺术，Dead End AI画廊无疑都在为关于技术如何改变艺术世界的讨论推波助澜——因为该画廊深信，人工智能艺术家及其作品将在未来的艺术世界中扮演重要角色。
