African Voices in AI | The Nairobi Conversation
When AJL Founder Dr. Joy Buolamwini and @Ushahidi Executive Director Angela Oduor Lungati met at Davos, they discovered a shared commitment: creating technology that works for diverse communities. 🌍
Recorded alongside the #CodedBiasWorldTour screening in Nairobi, Kenya, this conversation – moderated by Dr. Caroline Emmer de Albuquerque Green of the @oxforduniversity Institute for Ethics in AI – explores:
💡 Overcoming larger AI ecosystem problems to empower African communities in using and developing new technologies
💡 Women's leadership in tech
💡 Amplifying local voices in AI conversations
💡 Centering lived experiences in technology development
Huge thanks to @barazamedialab for hosting this incredible event, and special appreciation to Lillian Nyaboke for making it such a success!
