Until June 6, the Fine Arts Faculty of the University of Dhaka is hosting an artificial intelligence (AI) art show. AI-generated images are on display at this art-tech event, which is being hosted by the Data and Design Lab at the University of Dhaka.

One of the highlights of this exhibition is 'Demo Passport' where AI creates a 'passport' using a person's photo and information. Firstly, the user's picture, name and some relevant information is taken. The passport is then created using this information as input to the AI. The passport shows an abstract image instead of the user's photo where AI uses the 2023 divisional data of water, air and noise pollution to generate this image. The exhibition is an attempt to create awareness about environment pollution through AI image generation.

According to a press release, the computational time for generating the AI-images involves training the custom-made stable diffusion Image to Image model using the LAION-5B dataset using multiple A100 GPUs for approximately 3 to 4 weeks. The model takes around 1 minute to generate the image on an L4 GPU.
