List of artificial intelligence artists

Many notable artificial intelligence artists have created a wide variety of artificial intelligence art from the 1960s to today. These include:

20th century

• Harold Cohen,^[1] active from 1960s to 2010s. Cohen's work is primarily with AARON, a series of computer programs that autonomously create original images.
• Eric Millikin,^[2] active from 1980s to present. Millikin's work includes AI-generated virtual reality, video art, poetry, music, and performance art, on topics such as animal rights, climate change, anti-racism, witchcraft, and the occult.
• Karl Sims,^[3] active from 1980s to present. Sims is best known for using particle systems and artificial life in computer animation.

21st century

• Refik Anadol,^[4] active from 2010s to present. Anadol's work includes video installations based on generative algorithms with artificial intelligence.
• Sougwen Chung,^[5] active from 2010s to present. Chung's work includes performances with a robotic arm that uses AI to attempt to draw in a manner similar to Chung.
• Stephanie Dinkins,^[6] active from 2010s to present. Dinkins' work includes recordings of conversations with an artificially intelligent robot that resembles a black woman, discussing topics such as race and the nature of being.
• Jake Elwes,^[7] active from 2010s to present. Their practice is the exploration of artificial intelligence, queer theory and technical biases.
• Libby Heaney,^[8] active from 2010s to present. Heaney's practice includes work with chatbots.
• Mario Klingemann,^[9] active from 2010s to present. Klingemann's works examine creativity, culture, and perception through machine learning and artificial intelligence.
• Mauro Martino,^[10] active from 2010s to present. Martino's work work includes design, data visualization and infographics.
• Trevor Paglen,^[11] active from 2000s to present. Paglen's practice includes work in photography and geography, on topics like mass surveillance and data collection.
• Anna Ridler,^[12] active from 2010s to present. Ridler works with collections of information, including self-generated data sets, often working with floral photography.
