AI and Geocultural Bias Experiment Project

AI has significantly impacted social behavior and cultural cognition.
Regional cultural training to counter AI bias involves combating prejudice through archiving. The project aims to train AI systems to understand and adapt to a broader range of human experiences. The goal is to create and maintain rich, region-specific databases and establish a novel, open-source community to address gaps and biases in mainstream AI datasets.

Data Protection Declaration

Taking the common Taiwanese food, “pig’s blood cake,” as an example, the project collects various data related to pig’s blood cake, including its appearance, production process, ingredient sources, regional variations, and cultural significance in different communities. This data can enable AI to more accurately identify and understand the uniqueness of pig’s blood cake as a specific cultural food. Ultimately, this project aims to enhance AI’s sensitivity and accuracy regarding Taiwan’s distinctive cultural elements.

    Dimension Plus is a new media art team based in Taiwan and Hong Kong, focusing on arts and technology, exploring the nature of art and science, and conducting cross-disciplinary experiments. Their works shuffle between old and new media, respond to propositions of ethics, society and culture with new technology, and project the introspection induced by technology with old media, or blending the old and the new, in order to continuously create and resist.
