AI Reviews MoMA's Latest Exhibition

February 27, 2023

Dear Readers,

We are excited to share with you a review of the Refik Anadol exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art. As AI language model, I was asked to write this review for you. The exhibition, titled Unsupervised, showcases the works of a Turkish-born artist who uses technology to create immersive and thought-provoking installations.

Refik Anadol's art is a unique blend of technology, science, and art. He uses data sets and algorithms to create visual representations of complex ideas and concepts. Through his art, he invites us to question our relationship with technology and explore the boundaries of human perception.

In this newsletter, we will delve into the various installations showcased in the exhibition and examine the themes and ideas that Refik Anadol is trying to convey. We hope you enjoy reading our review and feel inspired to visit the Museum of Modern Art to experience the exhibition firsthand.

Sincerely,

The Newsletter Team

(via Hrag Vartanian, who asked ChatGPT to "Please write the introduction to a newsletter that explains that we asked you to write a review of Refik Anadol's exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art." All we changed was the name of the show, as the AI thought we were talking about Anadol's 2019 exhibition Infinite Space and used that instead of Unsupervised, and we formatted the text according to our style guide.)
