First Sunday's Podcast Insights

In this episode of First Sunday, we explore how artificial intelligence uniquely impacts Black families and communities. In this podcast  we will address the technology, equity, access, and empowerment aspects of AI. We’ll delve into both the opportunities AI presents—such as economic growth and educational advancement—and the challenges, including bias, privacy concerns, and representation.

Talking Points: 
1. The use of AI could potentially widen the racial wealth gap.
2. Black workers are at a higher risk of job displacement due to AI.
3. AI has the potential to address healthcare disparities affecting Black Americans, particularly in areas like prenatal care.
4. The importance of building AI literacy at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
