SUMMARY:Diversity and Inclusion in AI Symposium
DESCRIPTION:I will be presenting my AI slop research at the Diversity and Inclusion in AI Symposium online this year. I am exploring the linkages between AI slop. The propagation of images and reactions by right wing accounts\, the uptick in right wing accounts sharing AI slop. Drawing connections between AI slop and the Ubermenschen\, Hitler and Mussolini.  \n\n\n\nAbstract:\n\n\n\nGenerative AI is proliferating on social media at an alarming rate. Right wing spheres in particular generate and disseminate political Images with political agendas. These AI-generated images often depict soldiers\, sad children\, or interior designs. Of particular note are the catfishing-style “I need a husband” posts featuring women with impossible proportions\, ostensibly seeking partners. These chimeric creations are bot-driven posts designed to farm engagement. These posts also offer a chilling glimpse into AI-driven beauty standards and the lack of diversity in AI-generated women. These posts reflect a mechanical view of the male gaze. However\, an AI cannot truly comprehend the male gaze\, and in its attempt to mimic it\, it creates beings beyond understanding.  \n\n\n\nThis research project aims to analyze the patterns in these images\, explore posting methods and engagement. It will culminate in an artistic piece critiquing both the images and their creation and dissemination methods. By rendering these AI-generated images as classical Greek statues through Gaussian splatting and 3D printing\, we aim to create a visual commentary on the intersection of AI\, beauty standards\, and the male gaze. This artistic approach not only highlights the absurdity of these digital constructs but also invites viewers to critically examine AI’s role in shaping contemporary perceptions of beauty and gender roles. \n\n\n\nSlides:\n\n\n\nD&I_AISlopDownload

SUMMARY:PyConAU - AI Perceptions of Gender
DESCRIPTION:Why does AI perceive gender? Is this something that can be fixed? Should it be fixed? Explore the results of my research encompassing art\, AI and gender theory to find out the why and how of gender perception. \n\n\n\nMy PhD subject was AI perceptions of gender. I will take you through my key findings\, my artwork projects created to explore this topic and how that research has progressed today in the days of generative AI. I will explore perception theory\, gender theory and art all using AI to show why gender is fundamentally misunderstood by machine learning systems and ask the question why are we still letting machines assign gender to us? \n\n\n\nSlides\n\n\n\nPCAu_GenderDownload
