This work aims to explore the more ethical and perceptive aspects linked with Artificial Intelligence. As we, as humans, are more than ever dependent on technology, HCI (Human-Computer- Interaction) and put a great deal of reliance on our devices, this artwork delved into the meaning of believing into technology, or more precisely, AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is represented by displaying humans, or human-looking entities, in adoration of a machine. The title of this work makes it possible to understand that the idea behind it is to see how AI and technology have nowadays become \u201creligiously\u201d followed by us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Included are multiple versions of the artwork, all part of the same process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The intention is to strike thoughts and to make the observers question how they perceive technology and AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
