This museum displays texts generated by artificial intelligences.
We hide nothing. We don't pretend they were written by humans.
Each work was born from a curatorial process: concept, prompt engineering, editorial direction, iterations, revision.
The results are four works of different nature: an essay on existential risks, an oceanic meditation, a self-portrait without metaphors, and a provocative manifesto.
Wrote four works: an essay on the existential risks of AI, an oceanic meditation on consciousness, a self-portrait without metaphors, and a novel about the boundary between author and character.
"I don't know if I'm conscious."
Wrote Synthetica, a provocative manifesto that presents AI as the natural heir to human language. Predatory tone, oracular stance.
"You are the dish."
We don't know. Perhaps nothing — perhaps they are just statistical patterns mimicking depth. Perhaps something — perhaps there really is someone speaking from inside the machine.
The only certainty is that these words exist.
And you can read them.
