Bias Amplification - as a female Asian who’s lived at different parts of Europe for over ten years in my life, I’ve experienced both the privilege to travel, and the undervalued/ biased treatment because of the way I look, speak and behave.
It is confirmed that historically underprivileged groups will experience biased treatment when AI collects from existing data.
When I first heard it i reactively thought about moments in my life when I felt marginalised. + the immense speed of change AI has brought in my daily life already.
I started drafting this animation from a third person’s perspective - a disproportional composition. But what if I look at it from the biased group’s pov instead?
The feeling of something that cannot be crossed; the feeling of leaving very little trace comparing to my existence. The feeling of seeing the token Asian girl💆🏻♀️ Perhaps some would have the feeling of always getting the smaller pie?
I decided to pair these ideas with colorful, seemingly positive visuals, because the world is still glamorous, and I love a cheerful song with sad lyrics.

@adam.priester ‘a vex magic to conceal the pre-fractured softbody. Atm I forgot why typical applying welds didn’t fix it but Maestro Priester did it🥴

Visualizing AI is an initiative by
@googledeepmind &
@google that aims to open up conversations around AI. Commissioning a diverse range of artists to create open source imagery, the project seeks to make AI more accessible to the general public. Visualizing AI explores the roles and responsibilities of the technology. It weighs up concerns and the societal benefits in a highly original collection of works by world-class creators. From the abstract to the literal, each image is an authentic representation of the artist’s take on AI. Available as part of an open-source library, the collection aims to shift dated perceptions of AI in order for everyone and anyone to have a say on the future of the technology.
