DAD at the “Artificial Intelligence?” exhibition of the TMW

The Technical Museum Vienna (TMW) has just opened their new exhibition on “Artificial Intelligence?”, where a robot invites you to come on a journey through the history of AI.

This includes a model of a weaving loom programmable by punch cards or a transparent model of the human brain.

There are also interactive stations e.g. trying to guess your emotional status via camera, which is appearantly not easy with visitors wearing masks due to COVID-19. You can also try to teach a dog/cat classifier by showing it respective pictures.

The top floor is dedicated to the intersection of AI and the Arts, concentrating on music, literature and visual arts.

This is also where our robot “curator” Dusty as well as our exploration of automatic colorization of classic statues is being featured.
