An Nou Koze: Can AI Be Decolonized? From social media to storefronts, from academic articles to WhatsApp messages, AI is part of our daily lives. We’re placing more and more trust in it, across an ever-wider range of fields, as if it were a neutral assistant with expertise in everything. But is it really that neutral? Is AI free from the biases of those who created it? Does its use have no consequences for our communities? And conversely, do these flaws outweigh the progress they enable? Come discuss this openly on Friday, September 18, starting at 6:30 p.m., at TOM in Fort-de-France! Everyone is welcome, provided we respect one another and each other’s opinions. TOM, Teat’ Otonom Mawon, Croix Mission, Boulevard du General de Gaulle, 122 rue Victor Severe, Fort-de-France
