AI art for the Better Images of AI initiative
2022, Sep 24
The initiative “Better Image of AI” is focused on the visuals used to illustrate Artificial Intelligence in media. Certain undesirable trends exist today, which include:
- Robotics and Antropocentrism (robots that look like people, robot and human brains)
- Clear bias towards clear skin tones (white robots)
- Objectification of the female body (white robots with boobs)
- Religious implications (god-like finger touching)
- Fearsome (evil AI, Terminator)
Given the recent rise of diffusion models, we can use AI to generate better images of AI ;) Thanks to Stable Diffusion. Made up a few prompts, and produced the following images, which are free to use under CC-BY license. Prompts for each category are included for your benefit.
Sphere AI
A sphere is a perfect structure. It represents something that is at the limits of nature. Such as Artificial Intelligence.

Sphere AI (9) | Sphere AI (10) |
prompt: floating metal sphere, shiny, surreal, with camera sight, microphone and speakers. non-organic
Sensor and Actuator AI
Images and sounds is what fuels model AI. This representation of AI is built on cameras, microphones and speakers.

Synthetic life AI (3) | Synthetic life AI (4) |
Synthetic life AI (5) | Synthetic life AI (6) |
prompt: silicon life form
Integrated AI Circuit
The arithmetico-logic unit. The calculus. The brain. Integrated circuits conveying how Artificial Intelligence really looks like.
Integrated AI Circuit (1) | Integrated AI Circuit (2) |
Integrated AI Circuit (3) | Integrated AI Circuit (4) |
prompt: non-organic life form. integrated circuit
Light Network AI
An interconnection of collaborative nodes. A flow of energy through a complex system. Networks of light illuminating Artificial Intelligence.
Light Network AI (1) | Light Network AI (2) |
Light Network AI (3) | Light Network AI (4) |
Light Network AI (5) | Light Network AI (6) |
prompt: network of light. electricity an information flow. whimsical.
