Sasha Stiles is a Harvard-educated poet and visual artist whose heritage is Kalmyk-American. Her works are an exploration of A.I. poetics. Stiles’ artworks are inspired by her literary mentorship of the humanoid robot Bina48 (in partnership with the Terasem Movement Foundation and Hanson Robotics), and they investigate how artificial intelligence may — with the right inputs, ethical considerations, and applications — turbocharge cognition and creativity. Stiles’ work reflects years of research on such topics as transhumanism, digital immortality, cybernetic communication, machine learning and the future of humanity.
