Prompted Peculiar – International AI Prize 2023

The Ballarat International Foto Biennale’s inaugural global AI prize is now open for entries, welcoming submissions of images generated by entering prompts to Artificial Intelligence. As new technology impacts visual culture, Prompted Peculiar is an invitation to debate where this new art of ‘promptography’ belongs. The winning work takes home $2000 with $1000 awarded to the People’s Choice. Finalists will be selected by an international judging panel, which includes Berlin-based photo and video artist Boris Eldagsen, Artlink magazine’s Megan Rainey and Ballarat International Foto Biennale CEO Vanessa Gerrans. The jury shortlist of AI images will be exhibited during the Ballarat International Foto Biennale from 22 September to 22 October.
Entries close 15 September; learn more and enter.
