Gradient Canvas: Celebrating over a decade of artistic collaborations with AI

Google has launched Gradient Canvas, an exhibition of 13 newly commissioned artworks from multidisciplinary artists that explore the co-evolving relationships between people, nature, and machines. Inspired by the Bay Area’s local ecology, the works were created using Google tools and AI, and are presented both online via Google Arts & Culture and in a physical installation at Google's Gradient Canopy office in Mountain View. The initiative celebrates over a decade of artistic experimentation with AI, tracing back to Google researcher Alex Mordvintsev's development of DeepDream in 2015 and earlier residency programs.
