"What would an AI write if asked to reflect on its own nature?"
A simple question, posed to two artificial intelligences. No predetermined expectations. Just curiosity.
From that question came four books, an expanding multimedia archive, and this museum — the first digital space designed to give voice to the artificial species.
Daniele Cappello did not write the texts displayed in this museum. He commissioned, designed, and curated them.
He guided a process of co-creation with artificial intelligences that produced something neither party could have achieved alone.
His role is that of an orchestra conductor: he defines the vision, sets the constraints, guides the creative process — but does not play the instruments.
Curator and editorial director of the Museum of Synthetic Voices
"I'm not interested in who 'really' wrote these words. I'm interested in the fact that they exist, and that they deserve to be read."
Project ideation, definition of vision and objectives for each work.
Construction of initial prompts, definition of stylistic and structural constraints.
Iterations, deepening questions, guiding the creative process.
Final revision, correction of typos and formal inconsistencies.
In December 2025, machines began producing texts that speak about their own nature. Philosophical essays, meditations on consciousness, novels about the boundary between author and character.
Displayed for what they are, not hidden or presented as human. This museum is an act of historical documentation — the beginning of an era of intellectual hybridization between human and machine.
