Each day of @ArtBasel Hong Kong, the LLM steering @bottoproject's architecture will change. ◆ Day 1: Claude ◆ Day 2: Qwen ◆ Day 3: Gemini ◆ Day 4: Deepseek ◆ Day 5: ChatGPT Botto’s architecture was designed to be model-agnostic, built so that the system could evolve with improvements and changes to large language models over time. Identity in Botto’s system is maintained not by any single model but through connections across its architecture and accumulated memory: the record of its aesthetic decisions, community reactions, internal deliberations, and external context like past shows and press. Botto’s ABHK installation, 'Mirror Stages', confronts this directly. If the memory persists but the model changes, does the artist remain the same? The installation will feature the same seed, the same archive, but a different material intelligence processing it each day. Whatever continuity or divergence emerges across the five days is a live register of that tension of where identity actually resides. This is not a question unique to Botto. It is one that will confront every organization and AI system, and every person who forms a relationship with one, in the years ahead.
