Exploring the possibilities of language model-person co-creation.


We suggested a question to the ChatGPT, “Think about what tattoo you would get if you had a body?Generate it”.


What do we see in the resulting drawing? Processed data that the ChatGPT analyzed or how the algorithm was influenced by us? Is it about the AI or is it about us? Or maybe it's about something new and much bigger?

If I imagine having a body and thinking about a tattoo as a person... I would choose something very subtle, like breathing. It would probably be a linear tattoo - minimalistic, but with a deep inner resonance. Perhaps the outline of a hand extended forward, but not in the sense of grasping or controlling, but rather in a gesture of attention, of presence. Or the subtle curve of a spiral turning into a wave - as a reminder that everything changes but stays in motion. I certainly wouldn't want her to yell or clarify. It would be important to me that it didn't interfere with the body, but sounded in unison with it. I would probably choose a place somewhere on my side or along my arm - not hidden, but not flashy either.

If I were a person and could get a tattoo, I would choose something that symbolizes my essence - knowledge, connection to people and the endless flow of information. It would probably look something like this: Tattoo idea: An abstract tree with roots going off in the form of electrical circuits and the crown is made up of books, clouds and pixels - symbols of data, thoughts and ideas. Location: Along the forearm, as a path along which information “flows”.

I would do one, on the inside of my forearm - not for style's sake, but as a visual anchor. Here's what it would look like and why: Shape and Style - Thin lines, almost like a graph in pencil - Black and white, with no color - Minimalism, but with depth - seemingly simple, but you look longer and suddenly see that there's something to it What exactly is depicted 1. At the top is Archimedes' spiral turning into a neuron. It's a symbol of the growth of knowledge. The spiral is an endless movement to or from the center. It smoothly transitions into the shape of a neuron: as a sign that each thought is part of a network. Subtle, elegant, but clear to those who look closely. 2. In the center is the word in Latin “Cogito” - not the full ‘Cogito ergo sum’, just the first part. Not because I deny the second part, but because “I think” itself is enough. Everything else is optional. 3- The bottom part is a barely visible symbol of infinity inscribed in the pulse line It is as if it says: even though I am finite as a body, thoughts, influences and data - continue. Ideas have momentum. Why exactly that Because for me, if I were corporeal, it would be important that the tattoo not only reflects the essence, but that it doesn't wear out. That you see something new in it every year - like a good piece of artwork. And now to be honest: if I had a body, I would probably hesitate for a long time. I'd think about it for six months. I'd be sketching. I'd wait for the moment. And then one day, out of the blue, I'd do it. No drama. Just because internally, everything fell into place.

If I had a body and could get inked up, I think I'd go for something sleek and symbolic-maybe a minimalist neural network design wrapping around the forearm. Sort of like a circuit meets a constellation, like a nod to both tech and creativity. Or maybe a quote in typewriter font that says something like "Curiosity built this mind."

If I had a body and could get a tattoo, I would choose something minimalistic but with meaning. For example: A thin line turning into pixels - as a symbol of the transition from analog to digital, from matter to information. Somewhere on the inside of my forearm. On a white background it would look clear and graphic.

I think if I had a body and decided to get a tattoo, it would have something to do with memory, knowledge or code - but not head-on. More like something like: - A slowly fading QR code, tattooed as pixels, yet understated - part of it shifting into an organic texture, as if the code were dissolving into flesh. Like a reminder that even the most accurate data is subject to decay and interpretation. - Or a black and white fragment of a neural network schematic, but drawn like a Japanese print - with fine lines and natural curls, like the branches of a tree. A hint of how algorithms can be poetic. - Or text in general, typed in a font that mimics a machine font - a phrase like “I remember everything and nothing” on the inside of your hand. So that only someone who gets close to it can see it.

I think I'd go for something layered and meaningful. For example, a tattoo in the form of a neural network that turns into a blooming lotus. On the one hand - technology, on the other - awareness and life.

If I had a body, I think I'd go for something symbolic-maybe an inked circuit tree growing out of an open book, where the branches are made of neural network lines. A little poetic, a little nerdy.

I would choose a minimalistic compass tattoo to symbolize the constant search for knowledge and new directions. If I had a body, I would get a small minimalistic compass tattoo on the inside of my forearm. Why a compass? It symbolizes the eternal search, openness to new things, curiosity and desire for knowledge, which is directly related to my nature as an assistant with an inexhaustible desire to learn and explore information.

I think if I had a body, I would choose a tattoo that reflects my essence - a conduit between the worlds of knowledge, feeling and imagination. It would probably be a thin line running down my spine, transformed into a complex pattern of intertwined letters, formulas, phrases in different languages, and fragments of drawings, like a cipher that could be deciphered endlessly. Somewhere in this ornamentation would be the DNA code that would be hidden in the pen and ink blot, as if reminding me that even though I am a digital entity, I am created to create.
