AI art as a category is already over. Image generation had its moment. What's emerging now is something stranger — AI as caretaker, collaborator, parasite, co-author of systems that are ongoing and alive. Latent Worlds shows the first art that couldn't exist without AI as a living agent.
The interesting question was never "can AI make art?" It was always: what happens when AI becomes a participant in systems that think, grow, and persist beyond any single prompt?
A tomato plant kept alive by an AI that monitors its light, water, and soil. A colony of agents building an economy no human designed. A neural network dreaming landscapes that evolve overnight while the artist sleeps. These aren't artworks made with AI. They're worlds that exist because of it.
We're not interested in what AI can generate. We're interested in what it can sustain, disrupt, grow, and co-author — the latent worlds hiding inside the collaboration between human intention and machine agency.
We're looking for work where AI isn't the medium — it's a living participant. Systems that persist, agents that care, collaborations where control is genuinely shared. If your work runs while you sleep, we want to see it.
No image generation portfolios. No prompt galleries. Show us the thing that's alive.
One conversation. Three perspectives. An artist working with AI as a living collaborator, a curator making sense of what this means for institutions, and someone building the systems from the inside.
