This human-like robot with an eerie demeanour is making a splash in the art scene.
Using artificial intelligence and the ‘cameras in her eyes’ she’s created some original portraits of some of this year’s headliners with her own creative stamp.
Ai-Da Robot is described as the ‘world’s first ultra-realistic humanoid robot artist’, having been designed with a woman’s facial features, a set of arms, as well as a short black bob with a fringe.
The budding creative has just released her first-ever collection – a series of celebrity portraits of stars including Billie Eilish, Diana Ross and Kendrick Lamar.
She is also set to become a star of the festival, as her work is displayed in the Shangri La field at Glastonbury next week.
Ai-Da’s name is inspired by computer programmer Ada Lovelace, and her AI machine was designed in Oxford by Aidan Meller and built in Cornwall by Engineered Arts.
