You're invited to the world premiere of "Afro Algorithms". This 3D animated short film in the Afrofuturist genre explores the topics of AI and bias. In a distant future, an artificial intelligence named Aero is inaugurated as the world’s first AI ruler. But Aero soon learns that important worldviews are missing from her databank, including the experiences of the historically marginalized and oppressed. A slate of well-known Black artists lend their voices to the film, including Robin Quivers, Hoji Fortuna, and Ava Raiin.
This session is being livestreamed and can be viewed from the main page of the MozFest Plaza.

¿Por qué has elegido ese espacio? ¿Cómo se ajusta tu sesión a la descripción del espacio?:The session will offer insight into the significance of the story that was told in the film, how that relates to the fight of building equitable AI and get into the nitty-gritty of the 3D animation needed to create it.
¿Cómo vas a hacer frente si varía el número de participantes en tu sesión? ¿Y si asisten 30 participantes? ¿Y si son 3?:There will be 4-6 panelists for the session. Therefore, we can easily hold space for a lot of people to attend. Similarly, it will be okay if there are not many people for the session. However, I imagine there will naturally be somewhat of an audience as Mozilla, myself, and the panelists will all promote it.
¿Qué pasará después del MozFest? Esperamos que muchos esfuerzos y discusiones continúen después de MozFest. Comparte cualquier idea que tengas sobre cómo continuar el trabajo de tu sesión.:I would like for "Afro Algorithms" to stay up on Mozilla.org for a few weeks after Mozfest. I am also looking into partnering with the Algorithmic Justice League and other like-minded organizations to promote the film. We are also looking into public media distribution for the project.
