Event Description

A performance lecture by Yasmine Bodiaf.

Yasmine Boudiaf is a researcher and technologist focusing on AI, epistemology and the absurd. She was named as one of 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics™ 2022 and is a fellow at the Ada Lovelace Institute and the Royal Society of Arts. She organises with No Tech for Tyrants and fundraises for social causes. Previously, Yasmine founded and ran a consultancy with corporate clients as well as public sector organisations. Her artistic practice is a mix of performance, computation and writing. Yasmine has no regrets. Yasmine is down to clown. Yasmine's friends describe her as "not really a friend but someone I know".

The AI Justice Matrix platform is an interrogation of “AI Ethics” that invites the perspectives of practitioners concerned with the mechanics of knowledge formation that affect our relationship with technology. It treats all sources and expressions of knowledge as valid. It offers issues to consider when contemplating AI practice without necessarily offering an answer.

The project was developed as part of Yasmine’s JUST AI fellowship at the Ada Lovelace Institute, Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

Fundamentally, this project refutes the notion that effective policy making, as it relates to AI ethics, is at all possible. It’s critique of Euro-centric knowledge processes and the way they manifest as curated information flows passing though sanctioned knowledge keepers. It is intended as a tool to playfully undermine the validity of research practices that inform public policy.

The online platform is a collection of themed nodes, that when clicked, expand to reveal content relating to that node’s theme. It is an ongoing process of enquiry that exists in the commons, shaped by contributors concerned with the relationship between technology and society.
