Les Demoiselles du Robotisme Print

MILFONT Les Demoiselles du Robotisme_2020 Oil on canvas 80x100 cm The image features two women and a robot, who talk on a bed in an atmosphere of friendship and intimacy. The robot gesticulates while talking, while the listeners seem interested, which leads to a casual conversation. A sharing of personal experiences. Artificial Intelligence here is seen not as a servant of human beings, but as a friend. That cohabits the planet. If initially these beings will be created and encoded by human beings, what kind of codes will we provide them until they become self sufficient?The truth is that artificial intelligence can perform self-improvement. So, could they feel, or even transcend, certain human feelings and teach us to relate better with ourselves? The objective is also to question all these factors during its creation process. This can be crucial in the long term. Isaac Asimov suggested the 3 laws of robotics, but would it be possible for them to become beings in addition to supporting roles? With their own wishes and desires? Who interact with us as social beings, with rights and duties? Humanized? The artificial intelligence theme, despite being present in several media for many years, often presents robots as “separate” beings, submissive or implacable. They are hardly presented to us as an equal ”, a being that despite being“ created ”by man, has his own self, mistakes, successes and challenges. The black and white contrast present in the robotic character, refers to the current opposition that exists between machine and emotions. The character / robot chosen has a human “body” as a utility function, with aerodynamics focused on interaction. Its joints are formed by spheres that connect the members through a magnet allowing great mobility, in addition to what a human body could do, and facilitating the exchange of parts when necessary. But it has no face. Its head is a sphere of smoked glass that covers the circuits and sensors. Since it is a new species, it is not necessary that it has human features to be friendly. Your emotions and feelings are expressed through gestures, body expressions and electromagnetic waves. The truth is that artificial intelligence can perform self-improvement. So, could they feel, or even transcend, certain human feelings and teach us to relate better with ourselves? The objective of this work is also to question all these factors during the evolution of this intelligence. This can be crucial in the long term.
