Decolonial AI: Confronting AI’s socially constructed role and its undermining of Human Rights and Human Dignity
Abstract: While the technical biases within AI are increasingly becoming known, perhaps a greater danger is AI’s socially constructed role that asserts AI as a source of reason, rightness, or truth. AI’s social role is used to justify the unfair distribution of resources and power in society exacerbating the social realities that are shaped by centuries of colonialism, racism, patriarchy, and other dehumanizations and human rights violations. This talk will explore how we can form effective human rights and human dignity respecting practices by changing our conception of AI and moving beyond its Western philosophical foundations to more relational frameworks.
