Trippy Training Data introduces a unique dataset of labeled images for training a computer to mimic the experience of taking LSD. Images are sourced from a Reddit subreddit where p eople discuss their experiences getting high and document their hallucinatory visions using low-quality smartphone cameras. The images often showcase ordinary objects, such as leftover pizza or bathroom tiles, captured under harsh fluorescent lighting with exclamatory captions like, "WOH !" When an algorithm is fed training data, it will generalize rules, establish relationships, and detect patterns, even if there are not any meaningful ones to be found. If we stare long enough at marbled cheese, can we too experience something sublime? Show more
