What is it about?

We tested to see how Ruben’s copy of “The Battle of Anghiari” by Leonardo da Vinci would be interpreted by AI in a neuroanatomical aspect.We used WOMBO Dream, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithm that creates images based on words and figures. The keyword we provided for the algorithm was “brain” and the reference image was Ruben’s drawing. AI interpreted the whole drawing as a representation of the brain. The image generated by the algorithm was similar to our interpretation of the same painting.

Why is it important?

AI, like us, perceived the whole drawing as a representation of the brain. The image generated by the algorithm appears to show the hemisphere, cerebellum, and brain stem.

Perspectives

We think there is a possibility that AI can play an important role in refining such interpretations. An example of this is an AI’s interpretation of Ruben’s copy of “The Battle of Anghiari” by Leonardo da Vinci presented here.
