Gender Shades
Joy Buolamwini (US), Timnit Gebru (ETH)
How well do IBM, Microsoft, and Face++ AI services guess the gender of a face? The Gender Shades project pilots an intersectional approach to inclusive product testing for AI.

SHE BON
Sarah Petkus (US)
The SHE BON project is a collection of body augments which sense aspects of the wearer’s physical state in order to communicate sexual arousal. Collectively, the systems that have been developed for this project make up a highly personalized “suit of amour” capable of orchestrating sensor input from the body in order to display mechanical and electronic forms of performative output which express subtle aspects of the wearer’s physical state in a manner that characterizes their sexual identity.

MegaPixels
Adam Harvey (US), Jules LaPlace (US)
The project aims to provide a critical perspective on machine learning image datasets, one that might otherwise be overlooked by academic and industry-funded artificial intelligence think tanks. Each dataset presented on this site undergoes a thorough review of its images, intent, and funding sources.

Learning to See: Gloomy Sunday
Memo Akten (TR)
Learning to See: Gloomy Sunday is a video and an interactive installation where the recordings taken by a live camera aimed at a table covered with objects are analyzed by a series of neural networks trained on different data sets (ocean, fire, clouds, and flowers).

In Posse
Charlotte Jarvis (UK)
In Posse is an attempt to make the world’s first “female” semen using the artist’s own stem cells and material donated by multiple women, trans and gender-non-binary people. *In Posse* seeks to use science and art to undermine traditional notions of patriarchal power and to examine the meaning of gender now and in the future.

Sas (Social Adaptation System)
Lorène Ceccon (FR)
Today, good mood is the sine qua non condition of the terrifying “soul of the company,” and inconsistency of mood is deemed unacceptable. Starting from the digital shift of the French Labor Agency, Sas is an extravagant AI which establishes an impossible dialogue with the spectator. It underlines the absurdity of automation and the normalization of our feelings, but also our confidence in a computer system that does not know what it is calculating.
