Grimes Talks AI, Post-Human Art on Science Podcast Mindscape : Listen

Grimes appeared on the podcast Mindscape with the theoretical physicist Sean Carroll, discussing artificial intelligence, virtual personae, her production process, and more. Listen to the episode below.

“I feel like we're in the end of art, human art,” she tells Carroll. “Once there's actually AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), they're gonna be so much better at making art than us...once AI can totally master science and art, which could happen in the next 10 years, probably more like 20 or 30 years.”

Grimes, who says she’s “post-style,” also details the birth of a new digital avatar, possibly named “War Nymph.” Grimes, who studied neuroscience at McGill University before committing to music, recently announced the release of her new LP Miss Anthropocene, which is now due out February 21, 2020, via 4AD. She’s so far released single “Violence” and two versions of her song “So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth.”
