Berlin gallery shows robot dogs with Bezos and Musk heads

techApr 29, 20261599

Robot dogs fitted with hyper-realistic heads of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg roam a Berlin gallery in Mike Winkelmann's installation Regular Animals. The animatronic canines intermittently defecate on AI-altered prints of public figures, producing confrontational, interactive scenes captured in press photos. Winkelmann, the American digital artist known as Beeple, combined hyperreal sculpture, robotics and AI imagery for the piece. The installation forces viewers to confront how AI-generated likenesses and robotic performance reshape celebrity images and raise legal and ethical questions about using real faces in art.
