As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to shape our world, it’s essential to recognize the importance of Indigenous perspectives in the development and implementation of AI systems. For too long, Indigenous voices have been marginalized or excluded from the conversation, leading to AI solutions that perpetuate existing power imbalances and cultural biases.
The concept of “abundant intelligence” offers a powerful framework for rethinking AI development. By prioritizing Indigenous knowledge and perspectives, we can create AI systems that are more inclusive, equitable, and just. This approach recognizes the value of diverse forms of intelligence and seeks to create a more abundant and resilient future for all.
Elevating Indigenous voices in AI requires a fundamental shift in how we approach AI development. This includes creating spaces for Indigenous peoples to share their knowledge and perspectives, and prioritizing their involvement in AI design and decision-making. By centering Indigenous voices, we can create AI systems that are more responsive to the needs of Indigenous communities and more inclusive of diverse forms of knowledge.
Decolonizing AI is a journey, not a destination. It requires ongoing commitment to listening, learning, and adapting. By embracing the principles of abundant intelligence and centering Indigenous voices, we can create a more inclusive and equitable AI landscape.
