人工智能和機器人技術(shù)正在顛覆許多行業(yè)，其中包括美術(shù)。

已經(jīng)有一臺人工智能機器通過借鑒前人的藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作生成了一幅油畫，該畫于2018年10月以43.25萬美元的價格售出。

以英國數(shù)學(xué)家、計算機算法發(fā)明者埃達·洛夫萊斯命名的新機器人Ai-Da要干的事比這個還要難得多。據(jù)路透社報道，要讓這個機器人會畫畫。

Ai-Da的首次展覽定于今年5月在牛津大學(xué)舉行，隨后還將于11月在畫廊展出。

總部位于康沃爾的Engineered Arts公司正在制造這臺機器人，該公司還得到了英國畫廊老板艾丹·梅勒的協(xié)助。

梅勒告訴路透社：“她要在展出時進行真正意義的畫畫，我們希望到時給她加上繪圖的技術(shù)?！?/p>

“該機器人的計算機視覺中有人工智能系統(tǒng)，因此可以進行人臉追蹤，識別你的面部特征，模仿你的表情?！盓ngineered Arts公司的設(shè)計制作工程師馬庫斯·霍爾德說。

它的中心部件是真人形狀的頭部。Ai-Da眼睛中裝有兩個攝像頭，能夠把它看到的內(nèi)容特征重現(xiàn)在紙上。倫敦大學(xué)研究人工智能的部門戈德史密斯學(xué)院（Goldsmiths）正在設(shè)計機器人用來畫畫的手臂。

機器人的頭部將安裝于仿真身體的上方，Engineered Arts公司稱之為機甲演員（RoboThespian）。這種機器人專為與人類互動設(shè)計，擁有一系列的動作和模擬情感。已經(jīng)有一個機甲演員進行了舞臺測試，與四名人類演員共同登場表演。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

Artificial intelligence and robotics are turning many industries upside down, including fine arts.

An AI machine has already painted a canvas borrowing from historical artwork, which sold in October 2018 for $432,500.

A new robot called Ai-Da—named for British mathematician and inventor of computer algorithms Ada Lovelace—will do something much harder. The device will be able to draw, according to Reuters.

Ai-Da’s first exhibit is scheduled for May at the University of Oxford and will go on display in November at a gallery.

Cornwall-based Engineered Arts is building the device with the help of British gallery owner Aidan Meller.

“She’s going to actually be drawing and we’re hoping to then build technology for her to paint,” Meller told Reuters.

“There’s AI running in the computer vision that allows the robot to track faces to recognize facial features and to mimic your expression,” Marcus Hold, a design and production engineer at Engineered Arts

The center of the unit is a human-shaped head. Two cameras are installed in the eyes, Ai-Da will be able to translate what it sees and reproduce features on paper. Goldsmiths, the AI division at the University of London, is designing the robot’s arm that will draw.

The head will be placed atop a humanoid body that Engineered Arts calls a RoboThespian. The unit is designed for human interaction, with a range of movements and simulated emotions. Such a RoboThespian has already been tested on stage in a play with four human actors.
