Join Professor Hēmi Whaanga online to explore how contemporary AI is not simply biased or misused, but built on Western conceptual foundations that systematically exclude Indigenous ways of knowing, in the first webinar of the This Thinking Life series.
Professor Hēmi Whaanga (Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Mamoe, Waitaha) is Professor and Head of School in Te Pūtahi‑a‑Toi at Massey and a leading scholar in Māori and Indigenous knowledge systems, linguistics and digital technologies.
This Thinking Life webinar series
The Thinking Life: Ideas That Shape Us is a free online seminar series brought to you by Massey University's College of Humanities and Social Sciences, running from 17 June to 9 July.
For 8 engaging evening talks, Massey experts will explore how ideas from humanities and social sciences areas, such as psychology, media, classics, Matauranga Māori and politics influence the way we understand ourselves and the world.
Each evening webinar is free, open to the public and includes live captions. Come along to explore who you are, think in new ways, communicate with confidence, understand different perspectives and play your part in shaping the future.
