Numerous electronic devices have been scrapped since the Digital Switchover. What if the low-level AI code within these machines accumulated enough deep learning to give rise to fragments of consciousness? My work, Digital Being, is based on this hypothesis.
âTV Being 006 and 009,â members of the Digital Being family, raise philosophical questions such as "Who am I?" and "Where do I come from?" They do this by displaying random text, basic geometry, and an image of a planet.
It generates random texts while it thinks.
