"Thirty-four artworks created with artificial intelligence (AI) have gone up
for sale at Christie’s in New York, in the famed auction house’s first
collection dedicated to AI art.
Christie’s says the collection aims to explore “human agency in the age of AI
within fine art”, prompting viewers to question the evolving role of the artist
and of creativity.
Questions are not all the collection has prompted: there has also been a
backlash. At the time of writing, more than 6,000 artists have signed an open
letter calling on Christie’s to cancel the auction."
