My work looks at the current state of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and how it creates content for artwork and websites. I started by utilising the internet to write my own algorithm, following a combination of existing and self-inputted information. While not able to write full scripts, this algorithm was able to answer simple questions. When the calibration of the algorithm ended, I asked it the question ‘what is existence?’ The complexity and time-consuming nature of algorithm-building has been used to answer a hugely complex question on the meaning of our existence. After much time spent inputting and developing, the algorithm was asked the question,
“What is existence?”
To which it simply replied
“This”
