Hey man, I don’t know what message you’re trying to send by plastering extremely realistic-looking billionaire faces onto robot dogs — that’s between you and your higher power, or lack thereof — but no thanks. I’m good, actually, thanks for offering.
I actually do not need to witness Elon Musk’s smirking visage attached to a robot that then defecates AI-generated Polaroids to the audience. I’ve got errands to run.
Look at these damn things.

The exhibit at Art Basel Miami Beach is called “Regular Animals.” Created by digital designer and artist Mike Winkelmann, who goes by Beeple, it features robot dog versions of Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Andy Warhol and Pablo Picasso, according to Storyful.

“Regular Animals”, an art installation by Beeple 🤮 at Art Basel in Miami, features billionaire-faced robodogs that take photos of spectators & then “defecate” the so called “artistic impressions”, some of which link to NFTs. Printed “Excrement Samples” sell for $100k. Creepy af innit?

The art installation I’m referring to is called Regular Animals, located in Miami during Art Basel. It’s a creation by Mike Winkelmann, aka Beeple, the artist who sold his NFT art for $69 million during the 2021 NFT boom.
The penned-up billionaire dogs include Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos, as well as art-world figures like Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, and Beeple himself. It’s unnerving and weird to see the hyper-realistic faces wandering around on the picture-pooping dogs. Some folks might be tempted to draw some meaning from the installation. Not me, I’ve got laundry to do. No thanks.
