The Bard
"The Bard" is an experimental product about an AI who is constantly observing the world, and expresses its own emotions through poetry.
By investigating the mechanisms of human emotion and comparing how the human brain and AI operate, I define AI emotions as the hardware status changes in comupter. I proposed poetry as a possible way for AI to express their emotions. By experimenting with poetry as an emotional expression of artificial intelligence, I hope to explore new possibilities in the collision of modern technology and classic literature.
In the program, the AI is constantly receiving sounds and images from the outside world, and performing real-time AI recogniaztion. In the mean time, the AI continuously translates the current GPU and CPU utilization into its own inner emotion and generates poems corresponding to these emotions and the current environment.
This project explores the possibility of machines having emotions and expressing them. The use of poetry for emotional expression of AI is a novel attempt to explore new possibilities in the collision of modern technology and classic literature.
