The i in ai
Unveiling AI's self-image through a collection of 550 captivating and thought-provoking images. Created in collaboration with artificial intelligence, images and videos provide a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of AI's perception and self-representation through a large scale installation.
The images are elevated to 3D point cloud models in order to visualize the biases and ethical problems creating gaps in AI generated imagery.

Beneath the quartz-made identifier sits enterprise-grade security: cryptographic keys stored on-ring, paired uniquely to its user via finger-vein biometrics.
As societies grow larger and more complex, their methods of establishing trust — in information, transactions and each other — become increasingly abstract. Although we may not see shaking hands, bowing or kisses on the cheek as being in any way related to facial recognition or cryptographic keys, these ancient gestures can be understood as the first forms in a genealogy of methods — what we might call “technologies of trust” — which enabled familiarity to spread through growing populations.
Historically, offering your hand to a stranger meant disabling the arm you used in combat. Bowing required you to lower your eyes and expose your neck, making yourself vulnerable in order to generate trust. When we stand opposite someone, or offer our cheek, we can feel reasonably confident about the intentions and the identity of the person we are dealing with. But as humans outgrew their tribal origins and began to form larger and more intricate communities, we needed to find new ways of scaling confidence and reassurance across ever-greater distances.
Technologies of trust beyond the body include things like wax seals, badges, uniforms and stamps, physical instantiations that represent a person, their family or a larger institution. Over time, as this technical apparatus grew, becoming increasingly computerised in the 20th century, new tools for forgery, deception, and counterfeiting were devised.
