DESDEMONA FROM OTHELLO AS A ROBOTIC POP STAR?
Have you ever heard of a machine writing lyric on its own? No, indeed! Yes, there is a robot pop star that uses artificial intelligence to write its own lyrics. Its creators, Hanson Robotics and AI from Singularity NET, gave it the name Desdemona. Let me tell you that Sophia, the first robot citizen of the planet, has a "little sister" named Desdemona.
WHO IS DESDEMONA?
Desdemona is a character in William Shakespeare's play. Shakespeare's Desdemona is a Venetian beauty who elopes with Othello, a Moorish Venetian military prodigy, upsetting and disappointing her father, a Venetian senator. Desdemona is a lady of spirit and intelligence. For all the claims of military straightforwardness of some other characters, Desdemona is the most direct and honest speaker in the play. Her speeches are not as lengthy as those of the men, but with Desdemona, every word counts.
CNN recently broke the news of a robotic popstar whose creator claims that it can write her own lyrics through artificial intelligence (AI). As scientists’ program artificial intelligence to mimic human brains, CNN's Anna Stewart finds out if AI robots could ever be a match for us.
CREATORS?
Desdemona over all appearance and the whole structure was done by the designer Hanson Robotics and the AI research has been done by Dr Ben Goertzel the one who also created world’s first citizen robot.
PERFORMANCE:
The ability to be creative is frequently considered to be uniquely human. However, this has not prevented researchers from experimenting with artificial intelligence (AI) to create art in a variety of forms. In an interview with CNN Desdemona mentioned she is not quite at the level of human singers yet, but she is getting there. You can see here performance by clicking the link given below:
Singularity NET a decentralized marketplace for AI algorithms also posted a video of Desdemona on their twitter page recently show casing the pop star robot.

The Jam Galaxy band at NAMM show brings out first ever AI lead singer in Anaheim, CA. The important thing to note here is that Desdemona uses artificial intelligence to generate poetry on-the-fly using neural networks focused on natural language processing, drawing inspiration from a vast collection of great artists, poets, scientists, and writers. Isn't it incredible? She also gave a performance in June in New York.
