In the study, led by Theresa Demmer, people were shown abstract art of black and white blocks in a grid. The art was either generated by a human artist or by a random number generator.

“For the computer-generated images, we avoided using AI or a self-learning algorithm trained on human-generated images but chose to use a very simple algorithm instead,” Demmer told the University of Vienna. “The goal of this approach was to produce… More.
