Can an AI create art? This week on The Digital Life we chat about the brand new "Rembrandt", 3D printed by an artificial intelligence algorithm that was trained by analyzing the artist's catalog of 346 paintings.

The Next Rembrandt project, which was recently unveiled in Amsterdam, is, of course, not exactly the work of the Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn, but rather a portrait that replicates both the subject matter and the style of the artist with eerie accuracy.

If art is an expression of humanity, a reaction to the world and the events around us, what does this latest AI advancement mean? We discuss all this and more.
