The digital art platform NEORT is proud to announce the official inauguration of the exhibition "AI Yokai Summoning Ritual" at NEORT++ and now distributes certificates of participation to commemorate the event. The exhibition will offer "POAP" to viewers visiting the gallery. This exhibition is a ritual for summoning new yōkai through haiku poetry, in which the author, the viewer, and AI collaborate. 108 linked verses (5-7-5 syllable structure) were created through an automatic writing process facilitated by Takakura Kazuki and Takeda Shun. These verses are then broken down into individual words, creating a pool of 108 x 108 x 108 words. Viewers are invited to create their own haiku (5-7-5) by selecting words from this pool. The haiku selected by the viewers are then transformed into 50-word English poems by ChatGPT. The resulting poems are read by an image-generating AI, developed by Kandagawa Sōyō and Takakura, which mimics Takakura's artistic style. This process summons a new yōkai, which is immediately turned into an NFT bearing the name of the haiku and released online.
