We’re launching a new series of AI seminars at NCAD, exploring the questions artificial intelligence raises for art, design and our communities. Join us for the first session:

01 | 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗿𝗮 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗔𝗜
Guest speaker: Dr Hellina Nigatu, AI Accountability Lab, Trinity

This talk will offer a critical perspective on sovereignty, asking what other cultural and social layers, beyond training data, need to be considered when developing accountable AI.

Dr Hellina Nigatu’s research explores how concerns for sovereignty travel across different contexts. Drawing on community practices in other parts of the world, her talk will consider what this approach might look like in an Irish context and, finally, what the arts and design community can take from these conversations.

📆 Wednesday 11 November, 1-2 pm
💻 Zoom

All NCAD staff and students welcome!
