Everything and anyone can affect everything and anyone. Even Created Beings!

Says Geoffrey Drake-Brockman, cybernetic artist specialising in large-scale public installations. His creations interact with audience in an AI loop which still elicit surprising outcome for the creator and his audience.
Alex and John from Ninja Software find themselves in the wonderland of Geoffrey’s workshop where his incredible vision is tooled into life.  Surrounded by robotic objects that are both delightful and enigmatic, often chiming in their existence throughout the interview, Geoffrey spoke of the social impact of technology, which forms the inspiration of his work in connecting us to our humanistic traits as we barrel deeper into the world of machine learning and artificial intelligence.
Explored here is the philosophical and pragmatic consequences that could be distilled from our responses to art.
AI, Bots, Created Beings – What are they telling us about us?
