To many people,art is a human expression of creativity.But in recent years,you may have read news about artificial intelligence(AI) creating its own art,such as painting or writing poems.Some people worry that AI might someday replace(替代) artists.
But this worry seems to be unnecessary,at least for now.Many artists today are turning AI into a useful tool. Instead of replacing artists,AI is bringing artists more possibilities.
A piece of music created by Al recently attracted attention.AI was used to create the music based on the protein(蛋白质) structure of COVID﹣19.The music lasted nearly two hours.The project was led by Markus Buehler, an American musician and MIT professor(教授) of engineering.He assigned(指定) a unique note(独特的音符) to each amino acid(氨基酸)in the protein.The AI then translated these notes into music.
Listeners found the project "mind﹣blowing"."It allows me to see the virus in a new way,"said one listener.This surprising combination(结合) between science and art could not be achived without AI.As The Verge wrote,"AI helps artists play around in unpredictable ways,creating things beyond(超过)what they have ever thought was possible before."
Apart from creating imaginative works,AI can also take care of repetitive(重复乏味的)tasks for artists.For example,in the comic and cartoon industries,there are now AI tools that can automatically(自动)color in back﹣and﹣white line drawings.Although the results can be unpredictable and require a little cleanup,it can give artists room to experiment(实验),by cutting down the time it takes to color each picture.
As Peter Ward wrote for The Culture Trip,"Art of every kind has always been influenced by technological developments."AI can become a useful tool to bring change to the art world if it's welecomed and not unfairly feared.
