A month-long exhibit featuring artificial intelligence-generated art opens Thursday in downtown Cincinnati. is showcasing five artists through June 17.
Owner Paul Kroner likens this technology to when graphic design began using computers. I think we'll go through a period where there will be a lot of 鈥� can I say crap 鈥� out there and it will settle down.
But Kroner is a big fan of the five artists he鈥檚 featuring:
Alan Brown has been in the world of digital art since the 1980s but says he stumbled across AI-generated art last year. At that time there were really like two choices: or . Now there are a gazillion, he says.
Commercial food photographer and director Teri Campbell uses artificial intelligence programs to come up with concepts and to create backgrounds. But he says surprisingly, his style still shines through.
When I first started doing it my wife said, 'That looks like your stuff,' and I鈥檓 like, 'Does it?' he recalls. And then I had a friend that started doing it and Judi's work looked like Judi and I was like, 'Oh my gosh, it's true.'
Brown says it's unclear what direction AI-generated art will go, but he's excited about the exploration.
For Campbell, it is kind of taking me back to when I got my first camera, you know? Anything's possible.
