    Response from festival:

    Hi dear，It is our great honor to experience some of the world’s most outstanding AI artworks through the AI ARTIST platform. At the same time, we are actively working to increase our budget and expand the number of international guests we can host. We aim to support more artists from around the world to visit China, where they can not only share their creative works but also engage in meaningful exchange with Chinese creators.
