Hey Eve! (2023) | Video 2′ 45” (also presented as an installation, including video and digital prints)

‘Hey Eve!’ is an audiovisual piece reflecting on gender and racial bias embedded in AI systems. It presents the fictional dialogue between an AI chatbot called Eve and an internet user. Eve responds to user’s questions and automatically produces images upon their requests, using a popular text-to-image AI model.

The dialogue aims to reveal how AI models reproduce and amplify stereotypes based on classes like gender or race, when they are trained on non-inclusive and non-diverse datasets. By using prompts such as ‘black women working’, ‘doing the household tasks’, ‘taking care of a child, or ‘a doctor working’, we investigate how AI algorithms tend to associate certain social roles, professions or tasks to women or black people, while they associate other more prestigious professions to white men.
