His extended series Zero Shot (2018-2020) trained GPT-2 on poetry, simulating authors' voices to ask how an art style manifests as patterns in data. Smith’s projects place contemporary tools in an art-historical context, detailing how computation has shaped the past 100 years of art. His classes at RISD include Art and Artificial Intelligence, Digital Culture: How Computers Took Over the World, and Text Transformed: Writing in the Age of AI.
