The free foundation has supported AI artists for the last four years, and will continue to do so.
The platform is free for AI artists and the community. Additional features can be provided when you need more capacity, larger file uploads, a dedicated domain, or specialised features to support your practice.
Organisations can use the free platform tools for competitions, open calls, and galleries. Enhanced features are available for larger programmes that require more capacity, additional domains, or advanced functionality.
AI doesn't just mimic: it transforms and creates. With the vast expanse of human creativity at its fingertips, it blends history, culture, and aesthetics, crafting unique expressions that echo our collective journey. It's as though we've handed AI the brush, yet it's our collective experiences that guide its strokes. Imagine AI as an artist with an endless palette of human history, culture, and aesthetics at its disposal, painting not just from what it sees but what it feels through our collective experiences. So, the question arises: who truly crafts these pieces? Let's break it down:
The AI as the author: At first glance, AI seems to be the artist. It sifts through data, learns from patterns, and creates. It's akin to a brush that paints on its own, guided by algorithms instead of hands.
The AI artists as the directors: Then, there are the individuals who guide this process, the ones who prompt and tweak the AI. They're like conductors, directing an orchestra of code to produce something beautiful.
All of us as the authors: But if we look deeper, a broader picture emerges. Every piece of digital content ever created -every snapshot, blog post, and tweet -has fed the beast. This means the author isn't just one person or even one machine, it's the collective heartbeat of humanity, echoed through the digital age.
It seems most accurate to consider all of humanity as the creators -both those living today and those from our distant past. Together, we've woven the rich fabric of culture, history, and aesthetics that AI now draws upon. However, this presents a challenge: ensuring the vast pool of knowledge from which AI learns isn't skewed towards the most visible or dominant cultures and perspectives. The key lies in striving for diversity and inclusivity, making sure every voice has the chance to be heard. By consciously broadening the sources AI learns from, we can minimize bias and foster a more representative digital creativity. This commitment to openness and equity in AI's education is crucial for building a future where digital art celebrates the full spectrum of human experience, avoiding the pitfalls of exclusion or discrimination.

Hola! I'm a passionate AI artist from the beautiful city of Barcelona. My passion for the sea and dance is deeply embedded in every piece of art I create. I believe that art is an expression of one's soul, and AI tools have given me the power to take that expression to new heights. Using a combination of AI tools, algorithms, and traditional digital methods, I strive to create art that is both enigmatic and powerful. Each piece aims to be a journey, a dive into the depths of the human psyche and my way to convey the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
My art is not just about the visuals, but also about the emotions and ideas that are conveyed. Through the fluid movements and organic shapes, I aim to challenge the viewer's perception of reality but also inspire them to question the role that technology plays in our lives. Because at the end, yes, these artworks are created by machines, and they are a mirror of what we project on those large AI models.
For me, AI art is not just a new tool, but a powerful means of self-expression and exploration. I am on a constant journey of discovery, exploring new techniques, the expressive possibilities of AI art, and the depths of the human soul! :-)
