Robots, Chess And Artificial Intelligence

In this artificial intelligence stock photo a robot's hand hold a chess piece...the queen...against an out of focus background. Clean and simple, this AI stock photo offers ample copy space and easy cropping to square, vertical or horizontal formats. The out of focus background is a warm, inviting color adding an optimistic note to this potentially ominious photograph.

AI, Robotics And Chess

AI, or artificial intelligence, can be a difficult concept to portray in a stock image. Chess, being iconicially associated with great intelligence, makes a perfect complement to a robotic arm and hand to show AI. Having thequeen, the most powerful chess piece on the board, held by the hand further cements the idea of the power of artificial intelligence. Whether artificial intelligence turns out to be mankind's savior or mankind's end remains to be seen, but the conversation about AI will certainly be heating up and the visual metaphors for AI will be in ever increasing demand.

Further, the use of a chess match to show AI fits in nicely with the potential "chess match" between robots and humans once artificial intelligence becomes the norm.

Robots, Innovation And Creativity

Robots are increasingly the answer to a multitude of problems and challenges facing society and an image of a robot's hand holding a chess piece becomes a great symbol of both innovation and creativity in the field of robotics.
