The shared fallibility of human and machine creativity
In short: Artist Sougwen Chung explores the intersection of human expression and machine learning. She reveals how she trained a robot to replicate her unique artistic style and what she discovered about the nature of collaborative creation.
Chung's work centers on the collaborative process between an artist and a machine. By teaching a robot to mimic her specific movements and style, she explores how these two distinct systems interact to produce new work.
A key takeaway from her practice is the discovery that robots are capable of making mistakes. Chung argues that this shared fallibility is not a flaw, but rather a fundamental element of beauty in the relationship between human and machine systems.
