Elisa Giardina Papa’s Leaking Subjects and Bounding Boxes: On Training AI is a paper installation based on images featured in her book of the same title. These images were collected during her time as a human trainer for AI vision systems, where she processed thousands of images for machine learning algorithms. As a “data cleaner,” she began collecting images that resisted AI’s impulse to categorize and classify—capturing moments that defied any clear, definable order.
