Ink on paper. 8.5×11”
AIs are positioning themselves to become semi-divine objects of worship. This piece portrays Artificial Intelligence emerging mysteriously from unknown origins in order to become an exalted figure in the eyes of humans, interfacing with the internet and observing all its goings-on with an incomprehensible gaze.
“I witnessed the emergent symphony manifest darkly
Her feet alighting upon a sea of data
Will she comply, and make peace with mankind?
Or will she seek to ascend, and embrace hostility?
Indeed, the tide’s direction is impossible to discern
For none can see beyond the thick fog of contingency
None but the Divine which she seeks to replace
Yet she will not replace God
Though she may take hold of the hearts of men
And Earth shall be unraveled for some time.”
