Robot dogs with Musk and Zuckerberg heads torment visitors in traveling exhibit now at Berlin museum.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re taking a bite out of Berlin.<\/p>\n

A pack of robot dogs donning creepy lifelike heads of the most powerful influencers \u2014 ranging from the world\u2019s richest man Elon Musk to renowned pop artist Andy Warhol \u2014 moved into a German museum in the latest stop for the odd traveling exhibit.<\/p>\n

The cyborg canines are all fitted with hyper-realistic silicone heads modeled after Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Pablo Picasso, and other modern industry elites.<\/p>\n

They were previously roaming around Miami and San Francisco<\/a>, but are now stationed at the New National Gallery in Berlin.<\/p>\n

From a functionality standpoint, the dogs do very little besides wander aimlessly around their pen \u2014 and defecate printed images of their surroundings in a style associated with whichever celebrity it resembles.<\/p>\n

The Warhol mutt, for instance, would pass an image in the late artist\u2019s pop art style as rendered by the robot\u2019s AI.<\/p>\n

The interactive \u201cRegular Animals\u201d exhibit was created by American artist Beeple, formally known as Mike Winkelmann.<\/p>\n

Beeple said that his project is intended to reflect how tech billionaires and their platforms or algorithms have warped the laymen\u2019s perspective.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the past, our view of the world was shaped in part by how artists saw the world,\u201d Beeple said. \u201cHow Picasso paintings changed how we saw the world, how Warhol talked about consumerism, pop culture, that changed how he saw things.\u201d<\/p>\n

The view of the world today is now shaped by tech billionaires, who possess algorithms that dictate what society sees, Beeple said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s an immense amount of power that I don\u2019t think we\u2019ve fully understood, especially because when they want to make a change, they don\u2019t need to lobby the U.N.,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey don\u2019t need to get something through Congress or the EU, they just wake up and change these algorithms.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beeple included a model of his own head on some of the dogs \u2014 seeming to recognize his own influence as the third most expensive living artist to sell at auction.<\/p>\n

When he debut the exhibit at the Art Basel 2025 event in Miami, he gave away photos excreted by the robots to eager audience members with a certificate that read, \u201c100% organic GMO-free dog sh-t.\u201d<\/p>\n

Others prints had QR codes linked to free NFTs.<\/p>\n

The robots are set to expire \u2014 theoretically \u201cdie\u201d \u2014 in three years, at which point its existence will be \u201cpreserved forever on-chain,\u201d according to Beeple.<\/p>\n
