In this lecture, we will deal with data, AI-based art creation, and storytelling. This year, we will work on image generation using the latest AI image generation technology. In particular, we will work on generating images based on text input by combining VQ-VAE and CLIP models. At the same time, we will mint the AI-generated images as NFTs and try to speculate on what will happen when data-based "art" is connected to the art market. After each student has worked on his or her own work, the final session will be a critique session with guests.
