Ai-Da's portrait of Alan Turing sells for over a million dollars at Sotheby's

Ai-Da's painting A.I. God, a large portrait of Alan Turing, sold for 1,084,800 dollars in Sotheby's Digital Art Day auction against an estimate of 120,000 to 180,000 dollars. Sotheby's said it was the first artwork by a humanoid robot artist to sell at auction. Ai-Da, created by Aidan Meller, uses cameras, a robotic arm and a language model that lets it talk about its work. The sale intensified debate over authorship, creativity and the cultural status of social humanoids.
