We Want to Find the 100 Most Important AI Artists of the Next Decade

How far are you from being an artist?

Probably not as far as you think.

Between you and them, there's just one piece of work.

Van Gogh didn't start painting because he wanted to become an artist.

He simply had some feelings he needed to express.

If a product takes your needs and turns them into something more people want to use;

then art takes your feelings and turns them into something more people can experience and resonate with.

Every era has its own artists.

Photography redefined how we see the world.

Games redefined the relationship between reality and the virtual.

And AI is now redefining creation itself.

Today, anyone with the impulse to express themselves can become an artist in the age of AI.

So why not you?

We want to find the 100 most important AI artists of the next decade.

If you're using AI to express your observations, curiosities, emotions, and imaginings about this era,

let us find you.

The First AI Art Hackathon

This hackathon, we invite you to create a work that belongs to the age of AI.

You don't need to solve a specific function.

You need to express an idea, a feeling, or raise a question you think deserves to be discussed.

"01. An Expression"

Not a function, but an expression.

It can be an image, a video, a game, an installation, an agent, a piece of code, a generative system. Any form is welcome.

But it needs to answer:

What do you want to express through this work?

"02. AI as Medium"

AI can play any role in the work:

• AI as a new brush

• AI as co-author

• AI as the object of observation

• AI as an autonomous character

As long as AI's presence changes how you express yourself.

"03. From Creation to Being Seen"

The endpoint of a traditional hackathon is a demo presentation and judging by mentors.

But we believe works in the age of AI need a new stage.

This art hackathon will launch the Future Art Auction Conference —

The top 20 shortlisted works will be displayed on-site, where "tycoons" in attendance will bid with gold coins, recording their first "sale" moment in AI art history.

There are no scores here, only the resonance between works and their audience.

Let the first generation of AI artworks enter the future from the moment they are born.

If you feel the impulse to express yourself,

join us.

Your work may appear in this year's

First AI Art Exhibition,

letting your expression be seen by this era.

More stories about creators in the age of AI are about to unfold.

We also look forward to more partners joining us to explore new possibilities between AI and artistic creation.
