Dancing with the trouble: Ethical AI Ritual

In this Social Moment, we will make time to be in our bodies, to dance with the troubles of AI. We are responsible innovation practitioners working with performance art, yoga, sci-fi and street dance to develop a choreography in which each movement embodies an ethical principle for innovating in AI. Inspired by Donna Haraway and ritual design, together we will perform a ritual embracing the magical, illogical, delightful and laughable to inspire healthier AI. We will rehearse with our bodies, rituals for anticipating, noticing, and addressing ethical tensions - to nurture a mindset of collaborative creativity and radical care. Beyond the duties of data management, privacy, justice, sustainability and diversity, we aim to support capacities to respond to uncertainty with music, movement and ethical values. You don’t need to be able to dance, but you will need video on and space to move.
