INFORMATION technology has altered our world, but the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has further captured the public attention and imagination. An ongoing show at the Wheatbaker Hotel, Ikoyi, Lagos, curated by SMO Contemporary Art, titled ‘Kindred Spirits’, offers an artistic perspective. The exhibition, ongoing till June 30th, features 31 pieces from two experimental artists, Tayo Olayode and Ade Odunfa. For him, artists must embrace their ingenuity and traditional art forms to avoid their works being upstaged by AI-generated art. “In five to ten years, it may be a struggle identifying which is AI-generated art and which is traditional art,” Olayode began at a preview of the works.
