Talk given at NYU *[AI SYMPOSIUM - ARE THERE LIMITS TO AI?](https://as.nyu.edu/research-centers/maisonfrancaise/calendrier/events/fall-2023/ai-symposium---are-there-limits-to-ai--.html)* Seven principles of data feminism: 1. Examine power 2. Challenge power 3. Rethink binaries and hierarchies 4. Elevate emotion and embodiment 5. Embrace pluralism 6. Consider context 7. Make labor visible In today's world, *AI is power*. And this power is wielded deeply unequally, particularly by corporations and the Global North. *Feminism is also about power.* This is arguably the central project of feminism of the past few decades. For a while, people were considered with "brittleness." AI has only been optimized for certain contexts or groups. For me, feminism is... - a belief in equal rights for all genders. - utilized political action to realize that belief. - a set of theories and ideas that help us understand challenge unequal power. Intersectional feminism is not only about women or even only about gender. It is about *power*— who has it and who doesn't. Are there limits to AI? Yes! Deep, profound limits. Intersectional feminism, anti-colonial feminism have a real role to play towards developing AI for liberation and not just wealth extraction.
