Zizi - Queering the Dataset
Zizi - Queering the Dataset aims to tackle the lack of representation and diversity in the training datasets often used by facial recognition systems. The video was made by disrupting and re-training these systems, adding drag and gender fluid faces found online, causing the neural network weights to shift from normative identities into a space of queerness. The artwork is a celebration of difference and ambiguity, which invites us to reflect on bias in our data driven society, while exploring what AI can teach us about drag, and what drag can teach us about AI. Originally commissioned by Experiential AI at Edinburgh Futures Institute.
