Memory x AI: Decolonising Data, Archives, and Knowledge
Do we need large language models? How can AI execute smaller functions, serve a community purpose, or act as a container for niche purposes? What data practices can we create that feel more aligned with our values? We are excited to get deeper into this with you, if you'll join us.
Tickets are free and we have the means to pay for 10 people's transport. Please email us if you need this at ZnV0dXJlaW52ZW50aW9uc2xhYiB8IGdtYWlsICEgY29t.
How is this going to go?
We will start with a in-depth lecture covering data colonialism, the politics of memory and digital archiving practices, the concept of small AI and case studies to illustrate AI's role in knowledge production. We will then move into groups for collaboration where we will create a shared dataset, query it using a small AI model, and outline some collective data principles. No familiarity or experience with AI or human-computer interaction is needed!
Please reach out to us via email or DM @futureinventions.lab on instagram with any questions.
There will be soft drinks and small chops but please feel free to bring your own dinner.
Also check out other Workshops in Abuja.
