AB - This paper analyzes how digital media art plays an important role in criticizing AI industry and its data capitalism. By using the power of digital tools, media artists can create thought-provoking works that raise the critical questions about the algorithmic biases in commercial AI systems. Drawing on recent debates in Critical AI Studies, I examine how contemporary media artists represent the idea of data justice through their work. In the case of Kate Crawford and Vladan Joler’s collaboration Anatomy of an AI System, they use infographics to visualize how data capitalism is depleting the earth’s resources and exacerbating social injustice. Similarly, Adam Harvey's Exposing.ai provides a digital archive to show the vulnerability of data privacy and surveillance capitalism in facial recognition technologies. These two digital media artworks involve creating what Jürgen Habermas calls “public space” in the context of digital transformation and seek to promote a critical awareness of data justice.
