The New Yorker magazine has dedicated its latest issue to artificial intelligence.

The New Yorker explores artificial intelligence not just as a technology, but also as a lifestyle. This is the first issue of the magazine where the editorial team invites readers to create their own version of the cover using AI. You can try it here.

🔥 Warning: Spoiler ahead! in this interactive game, journalists humorously critique the work of AI, and in the end, you'll have to do the work yourself, as "the deep learning algorithms did not lead to the desired result."

We have attached our versions of the cover.
