A People's Guide to Artificial Intelligence

by Mimi Ọnụọha

The first of a series of People’s Guides is about Artificial Intelligence. The People's Guide to Artificial Intelligence is an educational and speculative approach to understanding artificial intelligence (AI) and its growing impact on society. The 78-page booklet explores the forms AI takes today and the role AI-based technologies can play in fostering equitable futures. The project resists narratives of dystopian futures by using popular education, design, and storytelling to lay the groundwork for creative imaginings.
