Ada Cyborg

Ada Cyborg describes herself, on her own site and social profile, as a transhumanist and quantum artist and product designer working across brain-computer interface, extended reality, and audiovisual media, and as a creative director for brands and fashion houses. She has also described herself as a resident artist at Adobe, a claim made on her own social profile that has not been independently corroborated in other sources reviewed for this profile. She lists San Francisco, California, as her base. No birth date, birthplace, or nationality is documented in any source available for this profile, and those fields are left open rather than estimated. There is no obituary, gallery statement, or press notice indicating she has died, and her online presence remains active into 2026, so she is treated here as living.

Ada Cyborg should not be confused with two other, unrelated "Ada" entities that surface in searches on this name: Ai-Da, a humanoid robot artist built by Engineered Arts whose portrait of Alan Turing sold for roughly USD 1 million at Sotheby's, and Ada Ada Ada, a separate artist or persona using a similar name, whose own biography and exhibition history are not documented in the sources reviewed for this profile. No source consulted suggests these are the same artist, and no alternate name ordering (family name first) is documented for Ada Cyborg.

No verbatim critical assessment from a named critic at a major art publication was located for Ada Cyborg. The only substantive published commentary found is market reporting around the February 2025 Sotheby's sale, which framed True Random Universe as the auction's headline lot on the basis of its price relative to estimate rather than through extended critical analysis of her practice.

Ada Cyborg's clearest market data point is the sale of True Random Universe (2020), which sold for USD 101,600 at Sotheby's Online Digital Art Day Auction on 19 February 2025, roughly 408 percent above its USD 20,000 low estimate. Market coverage from HENI described the work as the headline, or star, lot of that sale. No other auction result for the artist is documented in the sources available for this profile, so this single sale currently defines her known public auction history.

The public record on Ada Cyborg is thin. No catalogue raisonne exists, no gallery representation is publicly documented, and no museum collection is confirmed to hold her work; exhibition mentions beyond the Sotheby's sale, such as the Coachella installations described above, come from third-party or self-reported sources and have not been independently verified. Her only confirmed auction result is the single USD 101,600 sale of True Random Universe in February 2025, which means there is not yet a price history to establish a trend. Collectors should also take care with identity: this artist is distinct from the robot artist Ai-Da and from the separate persona Ada Ada Ada, and results or coverage for either should not be attributed to Ada Cyborg.
