An upbeat outlook on AI in art is gaining ground worldwide, and a Miami-based Panamanian photographer recently voiced optimism in a Time interview. By collaborating with AI models such as Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, and Nova, she shows AI can be a creative ally rather than a threat. Over a year, she trained an AI to reflect her artistic sensibilities and organized an interactive exhibition where visitors co-create new works using prompts. A digital, AI-generated video clone of the artist guided the experience, underscoring how technology can expand human imagination. The show runs through May 2025 in Miami and mirrors a broader shift toward human–machine collaboration in the arts.

The ongoing rise of artificial intelligence in art has ignited passionate debate around the world. Yet, in a recent in-depth interview with Time magazine, a Miami-based Panamanian photographer—known for her vivid, maximalist works tying together familial heritage and indigenous Panamanian textiles—chose optimism over anxiety. By actively collaborating with AI models like Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, and Nova, she demonstrated how generative algorithms could become creative allies, not threats, in the evolution of the visual arts. Not only did she train an AI to replicate her artistic sensibilities over a year, but she also built an interactive exhibition where visitors could use AI to produce new works in her style and even be guided by a digital, video-chat “clone” of herself generated by AI. This groundbreaking exhibition, open until May 2025 in Miami, reflects a growing camp of artists embracing technology to augment human imagination.
