Rather I remember posting a video about another interesting young sista Ms Joy Buolamwini a Ghanain-American, she was interviewed by Amy Goodman at democracy now. Dr. Joy is a prominent computer scientist and artist based in Boston, Massachusetts, who rose to global prominence through her pioneering "AI" research at MIT. She's the founder of the Algorithmic Justice League, she exposed racial bias in facial recognition technology and became a leading voice for ethical AI.
Now back to Timmit Gebru, indeed, a very interesting Sista from Eritrea originally, moved to Ireland first with her parents who were seeking political asylum, and then finally they all flew to the U.S. Basically Gebru is in the same "AI" battle as Joy Buolamwini.
Thanks for the info, GM. Good research!!
By the way, Black women working in Artificial Intelligence globally represent about 2% of technical and AI roles.
