The DA LAB Foundation presents a solo exhibition of Raw Lab "Fabricated truth and other myths about human annotations" within the framework of the e-valuation 3.0 platform.
04.04 - 15.04.2023
Opening: 04.04. (Tuesday), 6-8 p.m.
The visual vocabulary of an image allows for multiple perspectives and interpretations. Context determines the meaning of the visual material we encounter. As humans, we are always looking for additional information to enrich and complicate the narrative.
When context is missing, obscured, lost, or forgotten, meaning becomes distorted and difficult to determine. Regions of interest extraction is a mechanism for selecting datasets for machine learning, by which only a small part of the input material is analyzed in detail.
Fabricated Truth and Other Myths of Human Annotation frames the processes hidden in the development of machine vision and questions the meaning frames and the importance of context in image reading. The artists restore the context that has been deliberately omitted, exposing tricks inherent in the development of artificial intelligence.
