Garbage in, garbage out? How the monster of AI art reflects human fault, bias, and capitalism in contemporary culture
Abstract This paper examines the relationship between artificial intelligence, contemporary artistic production and content creation through an intersectional feminist framework, arguing that AI operates as a reflective system that reproduces and amplifies existing social, economic, and cultural biases. Beginning with examples of AI artistic collaborations such as 'What I Saw Before the Darkness', and 'Théâtre D'opéra Spatial' the research investigates how generative AI exposes underlying tensions surrounding cr…

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0394 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
