N° 63 — Spring 2023

Diptyk #63

Artificial Intelligence, the New Frontier of Contemporary Art

What if an AI wrote Diptyk’s feature? The editorial team tried the experiment with ChatGPT, and it is a failure they recount. Diptyk #63 explores artificial intelligence, the new frontier of contemporary art, from Refik Anadol at MoMA to the tools tested by the team. This spring 2023 issue also visits AlUla, M’hammed Kilito and Cy Twombly’s Moroccan interlude. Reports, analyses, interviews and portfolios complete it, between Morocco, Africa and the world.
