Ep 13: Agent Marian Mazzone - When AI Writes the History Books

The study of art history brings with it questions of identifying and classifying genres, styles, and interpretations, providing an understanding of art at a sophisticated level. With the emergence of AI within artistic spaces, it has drawn contemporary art historians to consider how aesthetics play into the analytical ‘mind' of a machine processing art. With the new aesthetic, and the blending of virtual and real worlds in artistic language, we have a lot of creative potential and we're only starting to see what that looks like. Professor Marian Mazzone is the chair of art history at the college of charleston in South Carolina and an expert in computational art history. She joined the Art intelligence agency to provide insight into how we classify and analyse AI in art.
