Episode Five: AI With Heart
This is part one of two episodes - we have a lot to say! AI is everywhere—but what happens when Indigenous women start shaping it?
In this episode of Settle Down, the Aunties dive into the future of Indigenous-led artificial intelligence - from moderating online racism to protecting culture, data and languages. Shani shares the story behind her groundbreaking AI project, wâsikan kisewâtisiwin, and the group explores what it means to build technology through a matriarchal lens. It’s a real conversation about opportunity, fear, data sovereignty and why Indigenous voices need to be involved in shaping the tools that will shape our future.
Settle in. This one goes deep.
