Swiss artist duo AATB & Leonardo Angelucci’s robot provocation, Friendly Fire (2024), premieres in the storefront window of SPBH Space, Milan, reminding audiences how rapidly AI and robotics are converging. The robot—a cyclops, equipped with a monocular camera and bolstered by a robust neural processing system—wields a toy water gun, aiming and sometimes shooting at passersby. “Is it acting out of self-defence, aggression, or perhaps mere amusement?” It may just learn what it means to be human, the artists muse.
