How Artificial Intelligence Is Changing The Art Industry (Infographic)

Artisans may have thought that, unlike many other markets, there was no avenue for machines to take over their ethereal reins. After all, something soulless doesn't have the most important component for creation of artistic expression: Human emotion. But arts fields from culinary to fine art, to dance, theater, and film, have all made advancements in incorporating machine learning in their crafts. PUTTING THE AI IN PAINT Recently, the first piece of credited AI artwork, a painting titled "Portrait of Edmond de Belamy" was auctioned off by Christie's for over $430,000. The painting, that resembles a man dressed in a dark frock coat, was set in motion by software developer and "Robot Artist" Jeremy Krabil.
