During these times of technology-fueled services and digitally obsessed urgency, Artfinder<\/a> would be content to have you dismissing your art agent \/ curator altogether. We have our groceries delivered to our door, we contract our car rides via an app, and now we can get our original artwork collection from a digital curator.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Using facial recognition technology (yep, the same kind used by police), Artfinder\u2019s new Twitter bot, Emma AI, analyzes any image you tweet at it and replies back with suggested works that it estimates will fit your tastes. Traditionally, a curator would give an interested buyer \/ collector personalized recommendations based on his or her preferences. Alternately, someone may search blindly through a website and never find what they need because the site\u2019s results aren\u2019t customized for them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

According to Artfinder CEO Jonas Almgren, Emma AI \u201ccracked the two biggest problems in art e-commerce.\u201d He says that some users don\u2019t know how to describe their own preferences for art, and others don\u2019t know what to do once a work they wanted has been sold. Based on the colors, style, subject and visual structure of the image you send Emma \u2013 be it a selfie, vacation photo or an artwork you love that has already been sold \u2013 the AI sifts through its catalogue of 250,000+ artworks and narrows them down to up-to-200 images that you may be interested in. This way, we don\u2019t need to sift through collections that don\u2019t speak to our aesthetic in order to find many options that may look great up on our walls!<\/p>\n

Art Zealous put Emma AI to task by asking it to look for images that are inspired by our logo: The clean, minimal lines with a pop of color gave us the results<\/a> above.<\/p>\n
