Daily life in future virtual worlds

„bayes{n}“ was the first officially released music using a new algorithm developed by Google. Byrke Lou worked directly with google developers to make the algorithm work.
The work complex explores life in our future, virtual and artificial intelligence driven world through methods of pop culture. The name „bayes“ stems from „Bayes‘ Theorem“, published first in 1763. Bayes‘ Theorem helps to better determine the probability of an event and is now used widely in the field of machine learning & AI. Supported by the Goethe-Institut.
