Artificial Intelligence is a 1985 album by John Cale. It was originally titled "Black Rose", the title and some changes to the tracks delayed the album being released for five weeks, early test pressings have the title "Black Rose". Having produced Nico's Camera Obscura, Cale recorded this album at Strongroom studios with her backing band, The Faction, with the addition of a couple of additional musicians. Following the chaotic period during which the album (and the previous two) were recorded, John and Risé's daughter Eden was born, which promptly caused Cale to kick his addictions to alcohol and cocaine, and to temporarily abandon rock/pop records and band performances in favor of other projects (until 1996's Walking on Locusts).
