What is real? What is reality? How is it perceived by humans, and how does perception differ from artificial intelligence?

The pivotal point of the work is a poem by Richard Tagett “Of What is Real”. In his interpretation of the real and the actual, he describes adventures, experiences in nature, interesting acquaintances, romantic and exciting experiences. 

This poem is taken up in my work and paraphrased in a new context. Humans alone have different perceptions of reality and what feels real or genuine. But how do artificial intelligences think about this, how do they interpret images from our world and how can a comparison be made? This work is an attempt to answer these questions.
