From Ford Foundation: Join us on Tuesday, October 31 from 6-8pm for an artists\u2019 talk with Stephanie Dinkins<\/strong> and Mimi \u1eccn\u1ee5\u1ecdha<\/strong>. The artists will speak about their work featured in What Models Make Worlds: Critical Imaginaries of AI<\/em> in conversation with moderator Salome Asega<\/strong>, director of NEW INC.\u00a0<\/p>\n Mimi \u1eccn\u1ee5\u1ecdha\u2019s Library of Missing Datasets<\/em> series assembles the blank spaces in a sprawling datascape. Through a filing cabinet with empty or concealed files, the artist shows us what is rendered invisible or intentionally hidden. Stephanie Dinkins\u2019 Conversations with Bina48 (Fragment 11)<\/em> documents encounters with Bina48, a social robot developed to reflect the beliefs and memories of a Black woman, revealing that Bina48\u2019s coding has given her no meaningful awareness of Blackness, race, or racialization. Dinkins\u2019 N\u2019TOO<\/em> redresses this algorithmic erasure by offering a framework for co-authoring alternative models of AI. For this work, featured in What Models Make Worlds<\/em>, an interactive intelligence trained with data drawn from oral histories by the artist\u2019s family generates a \u201cmultigenerational memoir of a Black American family.\u201d<\/p>\n This event is presented as part of the current gallery exhibition What Models Make Worlds<\/em><\/a> on view through December 9. Live captioning will be provided.<\/p>\n
