AI art might be a novelty for now but if you take a closer look, it is as thought provoking as any work of creativity

Behooda Series
AI art is controversial among the artist community, but one cannot deny the fact that the set of commands do finally come from a human artist. Here are four such artists who have gone beyond prompt commands to make us pause and consider what we are looking at.
In his The Behooda series, Varun Gupta expresses pervasive corruption and unethical practices that are commonplace in many societal institutions. “Each figure,” says Gupta, “the politician, businessman, police officer, lawyer, and news anchor symbolises different sectors of society that are often marred by such behavior. However, the series also aims to provoke self-reflection by including a mirror in the final piece. The use of blood and gore in depicting these figures as zombies stands for moral decay. The idea is to emphasize that corruption doesn’t just harm society, it strips individuals of humanity, reducing them to zombies driven by greed and dishonesty.”
