About this Event

This talk shares research from my latest book project, Not Inevitable: Counternarratives for Other AI Futures. Not Inevitable refutes widespread, misleading narratives about AI and offers corrective counternarratives that more accurately reflect how specific AI systems work and do not work, whom these systems harm, and how these systems’ seemingly inevitable dominance has been repeatedly disproven on local scales. This talk will consider how communities enact practices of refusal to imagine - and realize - AI futures that center care and justice.
