  • DECOLONISING ARTIFICAL INTELIGENCE featuring Uffa Modey and Gilles Hacheme

    DECOLONISING ARTIFICAL INTELIGENCE featuring Uffa Modey and Gilles Hacheme
    2022/03/14
    In light of the growing body of work looking at how we in the Global North can 'decolonize', our curriculums, workspaces, and much more, it's important to point out the problems we see with AI.   In today's world, the exponential growth and universal adoption of artificial intelligence are transforming not only local and global society but what it means to be human. Are you considered civilized if you disagree with the policies or culture of tech companies? How do Black and Brown people fit into these notions when decisions are made largely in the Global North, and the South is mainly used for natural resources and labour? Have we entered a new phase of colonialism?    In the wake of this digital divide and digital colonialism, the concept of 'digital natives' has evolved into the notion that those born with Internet access and socialized by it are therefore most likely to thrive online. While individuals across the African continent have been subservient to the colonial nature of cyberspace and the ways digital technologies have been spread.   For this episode, We interviewed two West African researchers both living in the West who are doing their best to change this very situation. Gilles Hacheme is currently in the third year of his PhD in quantitative economics and Uffa Modey cofounder of digital roots and is the coordinator of the Nigerian Youth Internet Governance Forum. We spoke about the information revolution, whether technology is accelerating the demise of local languages and the work that needs to happen to decolonise AI.  We are pleased to announce that we have partnered with the Mozilla Foundation, to bring together an incredible podcast series on AI. This is our LAST episode of the Mozilla Festival series and in this episode, we will be hearing from guests from two different spaces 'Decoloninsing AI' and 'Digitizing Lanaguages & Cultures. This year, the Mozilla Festival took place virtually from March 7-10. Visit mozillafestival.org to catch up on sessions, workshops, discussions, art and media pieces, films and more!

  • Can biometric identities protect refugees? With guests Cybelle Oliveira and Lewis Munyi

    Can biometric identities protect refugees? With guests Cybelle Oliveira and Lewis Munyi
    2022/03/01
    In this episode we spoke two Mozilla Festival 2022 wranglers from the Digital ID & Privacy space: Cybelle Oliveria a board member of Casa Hacker and community member of Mozilla and Lewis Munyi a passionate software developer who builds developer communities fostering the growth of the African developer ecosystem. The critical problem in cyberspace is knowing with whom one is interacting with we’ve even seen how relevant this issue is with documentaries like the Tinder Swindler.Using static identifiers such as password and email there are no ways to precisely determine the identity of a person in digital space, because this information can be stolen or used by many individuals acting as one. We are also witnessing the collapse of trust in institutions. The old model of trust flowing upwards through hierarchical institutions is increasingly outdated. In the meantime, the rise of new technologies such as smartphones are helping to reorganise the trust flows. And, In a world where 15 percent of the world population, or 1.1 billion people, still lack a valid form of identification, it is critical that we start leveraging digital technologies to provide a solution. Do we need a digital identity? Will this help us protect refugees? And what happens to our identities when we pass? We partnered we have partnered with the Mozilla Foundation, to bring together an incredible podcast series on AI.The annual Mozilla festival is for anyone interested in technology, human rights, and the future of the internet. It is the premiere gathering for diverse global movements who are fighting for a more humane digital world. This year, it is taking place virtually from March 7-10.

  • Does AI have a seat in government? Featuring Borhane Blili-Hamelin and Umut Pajaro

    Does AI have a seat in government? Featuring Borhane Blili-Hamelin and Umut Pajaro
    2022/02/14
    We are pleased to announce that we have partnered with the Mozilla Foundation, to bring together an incredible podcast series on AI. This is our third episode of the Mozilla Festival series and in this episode, we will be discussing rethinking power and ethics with two Wranglers at this Space at MozFest 2022. In this episode we speak to Borhane Blili-Hamelin an academic researcher and Umut Pajaro Velasquez a Black Latinx Caribbean queer researcher on how we can expand, shift, and rethink power and how we engage with the intersection of power, and harms, values, rights and democracy in tech. Despite a general agreement that AI should be ethical, we cannot always say it is. AI, algorithms, big data, and tech often evoke technological utopias, but the lived experiences of people affected by these technologies indicate that they can cause harm, inequity, and injustice. Technology is used in every part of our lives and so how does this impact things such as incarceration and surveillance? The environment? Job security? And what are the hidden and unaccountable ways in which they discriminate and disempower people? The annual Mozilla Festival is for anyone interested in #technology, human rights, and the future of the internet. It is the premiere gathering for diverse global movements that are fighting for a more humane digital world. This year, it is taking place virtually from March 7-10. Visit mozillafestival.org to grab your ticket and join from anywhere in the world - you will have access to sessions, workshops, discussions, art and media pieces, films and more, all exploring the social, political, and personal aspects of Trustworthy AI.
