Last weekend of "Evolution and Foundation" Exhibition! Can't make it? Listen to an AI-generated 'audio guide' at https://t.co/hQNVdbxAq8 (try the 2nd one) and visit https://t.co/eebRxbcvl9 where we combine Mutator technology and #Gemini create evolutionary art. @WilliamLatham1

[Dylan Banarse @2ne1]

"Evolution and Foundation" open 11am-6pm to Oct 26th where #googlegemini takes creative control of @WilliamLatham1 generative art. Dive into the process and AI's thoughts and AI-generated 'audio guides' at @oxotowerwharf, London.

Artist William Latham on the results: "We were fascinated to see what this new approach of ‘Targeted Evolution’ would produce and the outcomes have far surpassed our expectations."

It’s a glimpse into a new frontier of co-creation.

Why does the concept of 'red' not feel like experience of red? We argue this disconnect exists because our deep-seated need to be understood will always exceed the limits of the language we invent to achieve it.

Image Breeder - Evolve Imagen prompts using Gemini.
Start with a prompt, then mutate, crossbreed and/or guide with further prompting.
Works with free-tier but free credits run out pretty fast!

AI Studio is pretty amazing...

Could these principles inform more engaging, collaborative, and perhaps even understandable AI? By giving agents a drive not just to learn about us, but to achieve mutual awareness with us? Explore the possibilities in our paper! #FutureofAI #AgentAI #GoogleDeepMind

“Wanting to be Understood” - Could a deep human need to be understood be the crucial evolutionary 'gadget' bootstrapping cooperation, culture and language? We explore this idea using AI simulations in our paper: https://t.co/EsvghkOGu6 🧠

We propose this intrinsic motivation could have evolved via the Baldwin effect, potentially facilitating social coordination during the Paleolithic and even laying the groundwork for communication and culture. #Influence #Impressionability #Reciprocity #SocialCognition
