Ai-Da, created in 2019 by British gallerist Aidan Meller, is a marvel of modern technology. Equipped with artificial intelligence algorithms, cameras in her eyes and bionic hands, she can paint autonomously without human intervention. Her latest work, “AI God,” is a 7.2-foot portrait of Alan Turing, estimated to fetch between $130,000 and $196,000.

The choice of Alan Turing as the subject is particularly poignant. Turing, a foundational figure in modern computing, also expressed concerns about the potential dangers of artificial intelligence in the 1950s. Meller emphasized that the portrait’s muted tones and fragmented facial planes symbolize the challenges Turing foresaw in managing the rapid growth of AI.

The auction for Ai-Da’s portrait of Alan Turing is scheduled for Oct. 31 to Nov. 7. While this may be Ai-Da’s debut at Sotheby’s, it’s far from her first artistic endeavor. Since her first solo exhibition at the University of Oxford, her works have been featured in major exhibitions worldwide, including the Venice Biennale and the United Nations AI for Good Global Initiative. In 2022, she gained attention for painting portraits of music icons like Billie Eilish and Paul McCartney.

Ai-Da’s rise comes at a time when the boundaries between human creativity and machine-driven output are increasingly blurred. Her art raises fundamental questions about the nature of artistic expression. Can a machine truly create? What role does human intuition play in art, and how do AI-driven works fit into the larger conversation around creativity?
