Join us on AI and Justice: Redefining the Future, where we dive into the high-stakes world of artificial intelligence and explore a groundbreaking shift toward ethical technology. As OpenAI and Google push the boundaries of AI in their quest to dominate the digital search landscape, a new contender, Justice AI, emerges with a revolutionary vision: the Decolonial Intelligence Algorithmic (DIA) Framework. This isn't just a tech story—it's a powerful movement toward AI that is fair, transparent, and anchored in social justice.

Each episode, we unpack how Justice AI's DIA Framework challenges the status quo by prioritizing decolonial and anti-oppressive values over market dominance, offering a transformative approach to digital knowledge. We’ll explore why leading tech giants, despite their innovations, fall short on ethics and how Justice AI’s mission is set to change the future of technology for everyone. If you're curious about AI's role in shaping global narratives and what true ethical technology looks like, this podcast is for you.

Prepare for thought-provoking discussions, expert interviews, and an exploration of how AI can—and should—be a force for good.

In this episode, we dive deep into the intersection of activism and artificial intelligence, exploring the powerful and concerning rise of killer robots and deepfake technology. How are these innovations shaping our future? We examine the potential threats posed by autonomous weapons and AI-generated misinformation, along with the ethical challenges faced by governments and corporations in regulating these technologies. Featuring activists on the front lines, we also discuss how AI can be decolonized to serve justice, dismantle systemic oppression, and protect marginalized communities. Tune in for a crucial conversation on the future of AI and activism.

In this powerful episode, we explore Gender Shades: Intersectional Accuracy Disparities in Commercial Gender Classification, a groundbreaking study authored by Joy Buolamwini and Timnit Gebru. This work shines a spotlight on how AI systems, widely used in facial recognition, disproportionately misclassify women of color. Using an intersectional framework, Buolamwini and Gebru reveal the deep flaws in commercial AI systems, with error rates of up to 34.7% for darker-skinned women, while lighter-skinned men show error rates as low as 0.8%. Their research exposes the urgent need for more inclusive and ethical AI design, and it has sparked a global conversation about bias in technology.

Join us as we discuss how this research is pushing tech companies to rethink algorithmic fairness and accountability, and the steps we can take to build a more equitable future in AI.

Tune in to learn how this work is revolutionizing the way we approach ethics in AI, and why it’s a message the world needs to hear.

Christian Ortiz argues that the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems must be approached with a global ethical framework to combat the insidious influence of white supremacy, which manifests in various forms such as racism, classism, colorism, and heteronormative societal structures. The author, an AI expert, emphasizes the importance of recognizing that AI systems, if not carefully designed, can perpetuate existing inequalities and injustices. The author proposes that developers must acknowledge the global impact of white supremacy and actively incorporate cultural competency and a commitment to dismantling these systems into the development of AI technologies.

World Renowned Artist Grace Gee of Healing Grace Studio has not only created a revolutionary social justice community healing art project called Bubbling Up, but has taken added an amazing twist to it with AI. Not only does she utilize Justice AI to create extensive breakdowns of the racially charged stories she's collected, but she's helping train Justice AI's datasets on the back end, to build a more culturally competent training data to understand the very nuances of discrimination.

In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, how can we ensure that technology works for everyone, not just a privileged few? Join us on Dismantling Bias: The AI Revolution, where we sit down with visionary AI ethicist and creator of the Decolonial Intelligence Algorithmic (DIA) Framework, Christian Ortiz. In this insightful podcast, Ortiz shares how his groundbreaking Justice AI is helping industries confront and dismantle deep-seated biases in their algorithms, from healthcare and finance to education and beyond.

Discover how AI systems—often seen as neutral—are actually perpetuating racial, gender, and economic inequalities, and learn how Ortiz’s DIA Framework is offering a transformative approach to building fair, inclusive, and ethical AI models. Whether you're in tech, business, or simply curious about the future of AI, this podcast is your guide to understanding how we can reshape AI to serve justice and equity. Tune in and explore the future of technology through the lens of decolonial thinking and social justice.

Join global AI ethicist and social justice visionary, Christian Ortiz, as he takes you on a transformative journey through the world of ethical AI development. In this episode, Christian dives into the groundbreaking work of Justice AI, a revolutionary platform designed to deconstruct systemic biases and promote equity, inclusion, and justice in technology.

From dismantling Eurocentric narratives to amplifying marginalized voices, Justice AI embodies a new era of decolonial AI that centers intersectionality and accountability. Learn how Justice AI is challenging oppressive systems, decolonizing data, and ensuring that AI systems serve all of humanity, not just the privileged few. Whether it's tackling implicit bias in hiring algorithms or empowering communities to lead tech audits, this episode sheds light on how Justice AI is bridging the gaps and dismantling barriers to create a more just, equitable, and inclusive future.

Tune in to explore how technology can be a force for good—and how Justice AI is leading the charge.

In this eye-opening episode, we explore the critical issue of racial bias within artificial intelligence through the lens of Christian Ortiz’s groundbreaking article, "AI Racism: A Justice AI Study on How the Terms 'Thug' and 'Gangster' Reveal Deep-Seated Racial Prejudices in Pop Culture's Language." Join us as we delve into how AI systems, such as Canva AI, perpetuate racial stereotypes by producing biased and discriminatory outputs. Using real-world examples, Ortiz illustrates how the terms "thug" and "gangster" are laden with harmful racial connotations rooted in colonial and historical contexts.

We examine how these biases seep into AI models trained on flawed data, resulting in tech that reinforces rather than dismantles systemic inequalities. In response, Ortiz introduces Justice AI, a pioneering initiative designed to combat AI bias through inclusive data collection, bias detection, and public education. Tune in to learn more about how we can reshape the future of AI to ensure it serves everyone equally, and discover actionable ways to advocate for more just, bias-free technology.
