AI robot Ai-Da is about to make history giving evidence to a House of Lords inquiry

Is creativity under attack from the rise of artificial intelligence? Who better to answer that question than Ai-Da, the world's first artist robot that has made headlines for her incredible paintings and sculptures - not least a portrait of the Queen to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee earlier in 2022. Later today, Ai-Da Robot will make history as she (she is far too realistic to call her an "it") gives evidence at the House of Lords as part of its A Creative Future inquiry, examining potential challenges for the creative industries and looking at how they can adapt as tech advances. It might sound like a scene from a science-fiction film, but in 2022 it's very much a reality. "The fact that Ai-Da is giving evidence at one of these sessions is pretty mind-blowing," creator Aidan Meller tells Sky News.
