How accurately can AI predict natural processes through image generation?
In the first part, a boundary of AI is explored. A series of fabric letters are buried in the earth as material input for nature. AI receives a textual prompt accompanied by a photograph of the original letter as input. The prompt does not direct the outcome, but only provides information about the material, the environment, and the conditions. AI must determine the influence of these factors for itself. After periods ranging from one month to one year, the letters are excavated and compared with the AI-generated predictions.
Defining roles
In the second part, AI is used solely as a design tool, demonstrating how humans and nature can remain the foundation of the creative process. The specifically chosen uppercase letter ‘R’ combines a bowl, a diagonal leg, a horizontal arm and a vertical stem. From these forms, AI can generate a complete Latin alphabet.
