In Germany, robotic AI dogs with the faces of tech's most powerful men are on the loose — courtesy of American artist Beeple.
At Berlin's Neue Nationalgalerie, digital artist Mike Winkelmann (Beeple) presents 'Regular Animals' — an installation featuring robotic dogs with hyper-realistic silicone heads of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg. The quadruped robots move through the gallery capturing images and producing AI-generated interpretations, exploring how algorithms and digital platforms shape modern perception. The work also references artists Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol through other robot dogs, contrasting artistic interpretation with data-driven filtering. Beeple gained global recognition in 2021 when his NFT 'Everydays: The First 5000 Days' sold for $69 million at Christie's.
