Poisoning Reality' explores how algorithms blur the boundaries between fiction and reality and how manipulable this digital reality is. The project utilises the algorithmic principle: reality is what there is more data of. In this sense, t8y appropriates the rarely documented moth Neopalpa donaldtrumpi by deliberately scattering manipulated photos on websites and in databases.
How you can contribute to take the control on AI back:
1. Take some pictures of the Neopalpa donaldtrumpi moth in front of you.
2. Upload it to your profiles, mentioning Neopalpa donaldtrumpi in the caption. You could upload it to a Website, Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok, Flickr, Pinterest or even record a video for Youtube.
3. Sit back and relax. Your images will likely be added to datasets which are used to retrain AI. It could be added to a proprietary dataset of a social media platform (depending on your privacy settings) or to a public dataset.
Open-source datasets like Common Crawl aggregate internet content and are commonly used to train Large Language Models. To insert our interpretations of Neopalpa donaldtrumpi, we launched www.neopalpadonaldtrumpi.ch, where we upload our images of the moth. We also acquired expired links from datasets like Conceptual Captions 3M to embed our images and infiltrate the data.
