hi there,
this is an invitation to the lecture by Bruno Moreschi about his artistic practice and research on hidden labor in the context of AI systems as part of the IBK-lecture series.
Thursday May 2, 6pm @ Schillerplatz 3, 1010 Vienna, room M20
Using excerpts from Acapulco, a recent feature film on images from large-scale vision datasets, Bruno Moreschi offers an experimental lecture to shed light on the visual content, replications of historical continuities, and precarious human labor behind computer vision. He focuses on a long-term exchange with crowd workers to highlight the decontextualized practices that these images undergo during their tagging and/or description, so that they become data for machine learning. The lecture also presents experimental methodologies with images and humans that Moreschi has been testing for at least five years in an attempt to speculate new ways of training machines with visual content.
