interested in frameworks of indigenous data sovereignty as it may apply to AI and language because mostly I have seen it discussed around biologics and personal/administrative/health data or Traditional Knowledge. Anyway AI kind of makes data-sov everyone’s issue. It’s ya boi

I'm in a BA program for Speculative Design. Thinking senior project next year could be: develop a tribally controlled Dakota language Speech-To-Text tool that respects data sovereignty. There's already work being done on Dakota language apps, but speech recognition has greater risks. It’s ya boi

next week one of the art history/reseach classes I’m taking this term is going to talk about the work of Cannupa Hanska Luger, who’s probably one of the major examples of a native contemporary artist that I would wanna cite, so that’s exciting to me www.cannupahanska.com
