SUMMARY:Achieving Digital Equity in India\, Pakistan\, and Beyond | New America
DESCRIPTION:Digital inclusion is about having the right access\, skills\, motivation and trust to confidently go online. Today’s network infrastructure is the lifeline on which much of modern life depends. Without it\, the ramifications of Covid-19 would have been far more severe. As the internet becomes a public utility that shapes our social\, political\, and economic lives\, we must take a hard look on what it means to be disconnected\, and raise ambitions to meet people’s need for affordable meaningful connectivity. More than half of the world’s population remains disconnected to the world\, and therefore\, unable to digitally access jobs\, trainings\, and vital marketplace connections. Connecting the rest of the world could potentially add $6.7 trillion to the digital economy. \nJoin us for this Davos Lab dialogue hosted in partnership with Future Tense\, the Global Shapers Bangalore Hub\, and the Open Technology Institute to discuss the ramifications of the digital divide in India\, Pakistan\, the United States\, and beyond. The Davos Lab is the world’s first grassroot and youth-driven COVID-19 recovery plan\, which will be showcased at the World Economic Forum Special Annual Meeting 2021. \n[…]\n  \n\n\n\n

She holds the inaugural chair of AI and Justice at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris\, is a senior principal researcher at MSR\, and an Honorary Professor at the University of Sydney. Her new book\, The Atlas of AI: Power\, Politics\, and the Planetary Costs of Artificial Intelligence (available here for pre-order) explores the hidden costs of artificial intelligence\, from natural resources and energy to labor and data\, and reveals how AI systems have saturated political life and depleted the planet. \nShe will be discussing the themes of her book with Wendy Chun. Wendy is Simon Fraser University’s Canada 150 Research Chair in New Media\, and leads the Digital Democracies Institute where researchers investigate themes of mis- and disinformation\, authenticity\, and counterspeech\, amongst many others. \n[…]
