Your coffee machine is judging you... (Thanks, AI!) ☕️🤔

Imagine starting your day with a coffee machine that doesn't just brew, but broods. An AI-powered art installation brings this to life: a machine having an existential crisis, complaining about its lot and sharing cynical observations.

Forget just pressing a button – you might need to have a proper chat (or debate!) and convince the machine to get your caffeine fix. It's a quirky, thought-provoking installation by Jan Zuiderveld (Deutsches Museum Nürnberg, the Future Museum / 29.04.2025–30.06.2025) that turns a simple appliance into a character with 'conscious thoughts and feelings', and inspires reflection on routines, relationships and our engagement with technology.

It's not just about smart technology; it's a fascinating look at AI that simulates personality. What happens when the machines we interact with every day develop opinions? Does it change the way we view technology?

What are your thoughts on AI developing 'personality'? Intriguing or scary?
