On the intersections of art and artificial intelligence, with contributions from Nick Montfort, Antonio Somaini and Quentin Bajac.

Contemporary generative artificial intelligence arouses astonishment, fear, enthusiasm or skepticism as the technology develops at an accelerated pace in all areas of culture and science. Networks of artificial neurons understand the world as a code: using the latent framework of mathematical matrices, they teach themselves to produce images, sounds and text in order to think, write and speak.
The World through AI explores the ways in which contemporary artists have engaged with these artificial intelligences over the last decade, with both critical and experimental aims. With contributions from artists working in digital media alongside essays by scientists and cultural theorists, this comprehensive guide looks at all aspects of this new frontier, from "analytical AI" to "generative AI."
Artists include: Christian Marclay, Trevor Paglen, Hito Steyerl, Julian Charrière, Alexia Achilleos, Egor Kraft, Theopisti Stylianou-Lambert, Nora Al-Badri, Patsy Baudoin, Nick Montfort.
