Tesla’s Car Did Not Stop in Front of the Mona Lisa

Images fascinate us. We have insisted that the machines we build should recognise them too. We are also fascinated by the ability to turn images into money. It has just been revealed how a self-driving Tesla ‘sees’ its surroundings. It is a surprisingly simple image. Now that everyone can see it online, it will begin a life of its own. It is only a matter of time before we read about an artist who turns this black-and-white picture into a work offered at auction.

Tesla’s car did not stop in front of da Vinci’s portrait of the Mona Lisa. Because there was no person beside it.

Tesla’s system may remain inoperative for a long time. This image will be monetised regardless. Perhaps it will become a non-fungible token (NFT), the art market’s latest toy.
