Art in the age of AI

Li Yi-fan's video film What is your Favorite Primitive? (2023) shares Wong's morbid humor in its speculations about a tech-dominated future. Using game-engine and motion-capture technologies, Li responds to the growth of generative AI by creating a constellation of avatars, modeled after himself, who mock and threaten the extinction of the human race.

Lawrence Lek's video installation Empty Rider (2024), transports viewers to an apparently empty courtroom where an automated car is on trial for attempting to murder the CEO of the company that created it. Presided over by an AI judge, the live-streamed proceeding — during which the car, the corporation and the "therapist" who trained the self-driving algorithm try to manipulate the truth — makes viewers wonder about the possibility of not just machines thinking for themselves but also influencing the thoughts of others.
