ROGAN II by Samuel Zimmermann aka Parandroid

Rogan II is the second Human AI collaborative digital painting from the Joe Rogan portrait series. 

The second rennaissance

We are on the brink of a new era. And this new paradigm affects all aspects of our existence including Art, in 1837, people drew mostly, well, people. And mundane objects and other things. And for the time it was good. The industrial revolution brought not only rapid change to all man's daily lives but again came with a cultural and social revolution in its trunk.

What we are currently in is what I call "the second Renaissance". An era of unforeseen possibilities in danger that challenge what it means to be human. In this world we live in, talking to machines to let them create art for us, seems less crazy than ever. And the AI models and super neural networks that are currently conceived are actually mindblowing. AIs working collaboratively with machines fits perfectly in the year 2022 and I doubt that this will change anytime soon.
