SUMMARY:Indigenous AI Virtual Reading Group (Discussion 1)
DESCRIPTION:Link to register for the Indigenous AI Virtual Reading Group\n \nDiscussion Dates\n\nSeptember 25\, 1–2 p.m. Sections 1-3 (pp. 1-42)\nOctober 30\, 1–2 p.m. Section 4 (pp. 43-90)\nNovember 27\, 11 a.m.–12 p.m. Section 5 (pp. 91-122)\n\nWhile discussions about artificial intelligence (AI) have become increasingly commonplace within academia\, seldomly are Indigenous perspectives included within these conversations apart from being gestured to as one of the many “equity issues” surrounding the use of AI.\nProviding a dedicated space for ����tv community members to expand their understanding of the intersections of Indigenous knowledge systems and AI\, this virtual reading group invites participants to question and consider how AI advancements compliment\, challenge\, resonate and/or contrast with various Indigenous worldviews\, ethics\, and epistemologies.\nThe chosen text for Fall 2024\, the Indigenous Protocol (IP) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) Position Paper (2020)\, is the result of collaborative work between Māori\, First Nations\, Inuit\, Métis\, Pacific Islanders\, and Aboriginal Australians\, that recognizes and affirms the diversity of Indigenous views and approaches to generative AI. As described by the authors\, “rather than being a single unified statement this position paper is a collection of heterogeneous texts that range from design guidelines to scholarly essays to artworks to descriptions of technology prototypes to poetry.” (2020) Regardless of the discipline your work is situated within\, this series aims to offer meaningful opportunities to engage with the complexities of AI and Indigenous knowledge systems. Through a series of facilitated discussions\, participants will delve into the diverse perspectives presented in the position paper\, critically examining how Indigenous protocols can inform ethical AI development\, challenge existing paradigms\, and propose alternative approaches.\nFacilitators\n\nRachelle McKay\, Anishinaabe\, MA Indigenous Governance – Educational Developer\, Indigenous Knowledges & Ways of Knowing\nAbdullah Al Mukaddim – Artificial Intelligence Analyst
