文字稿

Meet Ai-Da, the robot artist.       

來認識一下機器人藝術(shù)家 “艾達”。

It’s a slow and steady process but effective. These are a few of her recent self-portraits. And what’s more, she’s happy to have a chat!

她的作畫過程慢條斯理，卻卓有成效。這些是她最近畫的幾張自畫像。她還很樂意和人聊天。

How are you today?

“你今天好嗎？”

Ai-Da, robot
I am well, thank you.

機器人 “艾達”
“我很好，謝謝。”

How would you rate yourself as an artist?

“作為一名藝術(shù)家，你如何評價自己？”

I love to be creative. I enjoy being someone who makes people think.

“我很喜歡發(fā)揮創(chuàng)造力。我喜歡做一個能激發(fā)別人思考的人?！?

She answers questions, each painting is different and a surprise. You could almost say she has a personality.

她會回答問題，每幅畫都不一樣，都是一個驚喜。你幾乎可以說，她是擁有個性的。

Priya Khanchandani, Curator, Design Museum (London)
Fundamentally, it’s… that’s a funny question. I think the prospect of getting to know her is hilarious. But at the same time, I mean, peering over at her now. And I do think… I think her makers probably consider that they have some form of relationship whether that is reciprocated or not.

“從根本上說，這是一個很有趣的問題。我覺得說要去了解她，很有意思。但與此同時，現(xiàn)在看著她，我確實認為……我認為制造她的人可能覺得他們之間有某種形式的聯(lián)系，不管這種聯(lián)系是不是相互的。”

David Sillito, BBC correspondent
Ai-Da, could you look across there to the camera? We are all used to these days, talking to machines and our phones, but creativity is [a] rather different question and this is meant to be a little bit unsettling – a little unnerving.

大衛(wèi)·西利托       BBC通訊員
“艾達，你能看那邊的鏡頭嗎？如今，我們都習(xí)慣了與機器和手機交談，但創(chuàng)造力卻是一個頗為不同的問題，所以我面前的這番景象有點讓人心緒不寧?！?

Aidan Mellor, Ai-Da Project
The thing that concerns us about technology is the fact that we don’t know the domino effect of it. Ai-Da foreshadows many technologies coming through and she poses those questions by her artwork, to say – this is what’s coming through – are we happy with that?

艾丹·梅勒       “艾達” 項目
“技術(shù)之所以讓我們擔(dān)心，是因為我們不知道它會帶來怎樣的多米諾骨牌效應(yīng)。艾達預(yù)示了諸多技術(shù)的來臨，她通過自己的藝術(shù)作品提出了這些問題，像是在說：這就是未來的技術(shù)，我們對此滿意嗎？”

So, Ai-Da the artist. It’s painting today, who knows what, tomorrow?

這就是藝術(shù)家艾達。今天它會畫畫，誰知道以后人工智能技術(shù)還能做些什么？
