Quote from NINFA: “In a time when AI, for better or worse, is on everyone’s lips we wish to showcase its true and purest potential. Focused on defining the present and the future of AI in the NFT space, this selection of artists seeks to give an overall view of the different styles within AI art featuring multiple edition pieces by 15 AI Artists.

Technological advancement is tightly intertwined with humankind, so the merge of art and technology comes as no surprise. AI art is the result of the collaboration between an artist and an AI system, where data inputs are used as paint and keystrokes become brush-strokes. The human-being reasons, the machine processes, and creativity turns into data.

NINFA AI Drop invites visitors to experience the essence of AI art and take a journey into worlds that were hitherto distant.”
