L’IA au service du bien commun : perspectives pour les bailleurs de fonds québécois

Alors que l’intelligence artificielle s’impose dans tous les secteurs, la philanthropie n’y échappe pas. Cette rencontre sera l’occasion d’une réflexion collective sur les opportunités et les risques liés à l’IA pour les organismes et les communautés québécoises. Deux intervenants partageront leurs points de vue divergents afin d’alimenter un dialogue ouvert et concret.

Land acknowledgement:

Andre Williams has called Tiohtià:ke (Montreal) home for the last 10 years. Tiohtià:ke has long been a meeting place for various Indigenous nations, including the Kanien’kehà:ka (Mohawk) Nation, who are part of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.

Tiohtià:ke (Montreal) is also home to a diverse urban Indigenous population, including members of the Anishinaabeg, Huron-Wendat, and Inuit communities, among others.

Andre remains committed to systemic change and holds himself accountable to continue learning from and serving Indigenous communities.
