🎨 The Artist’s Eye: Can AI Develop a Critical Eye? (Part 1) — A Conversation with Bosko Hrnjak (Epi. # 285)

What happens when an artist who has spent decades developing his eye asks AI to critique his work — without telling it who made it?

In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, multidisciplinary artist Bosko Hrnjak brings a critical lens to AI and finds himself genuinely surprised — even “wowed” — by what it can perceive.

We explore critical thinking, pattern recognition, artistic discernment, and AI as a potential thinking partner — while asking whether technology might help us notice connections and nuances we otherwise miss.

Bosko is a pioneering figure in the modern Tiki revival whose handcrafted work spans carving, ceramics, painting, photography, assemblage, and design. His site describes his Polynesian Pop work as handcrafted in Southern California since 1993.
