Christie's, the auction house that has sold paintings by Picasso and Monet at record prices, is now poised to set another milestone with the first-ever auction of art created by artificial intelligence (AI).
曾以创记录价格售出毕加索和莫奈画作的佳士得拍卖行,现在将再次树立一个里程碑:史上首次拍卖人工智能(AI)创作的艺术作品。
The AI-generated "Portrait of Edmond Belamy" depicts a slightly blurry chubby man in a dark frock-coat and white collar, and his off-center position leaves enough white space to show the artist's signature as "min max Ex[log(D(x))] + Ez[log(1-D(G(z)))]".
这幅由AI绘制的画作名为《埃德蒙·贝拉米肖像》,以朦胧的笔迹描绘了一位身着白衬衫深色长礼服、身形较丰满的男士。在偏离中心的位置留出了足够的空白显示创作者的签名:min max Ex[log(D(x))] + Ez[log(1-D(G(z)))]。
The painting is expected to fetch as much as $10,000.
这幅画的拍卖价预计高达1万美元。
The portrait was created with AI programmed by the Paris-based collective Obvious, which consists of three 25-year-olds.
创作这幅画的AI程序由巴黎团体Obvious编写,该团体由三名25岁的年轻人组成。
The work up for auction is one of 11 portraits of the fictional Belamy family.
此次拍卖的画作是虚构的贝拉米家族的11幅肖像画之一。
Another portrait in the series was sold to Parisian collector Nicolas Laugero-Lassere in February for around $12,000.
今年2月,该系列的另一幅肖像画被巴黎收藏家拉塞尔以约1.2万美元购入。
