Responsible technology under digital colonialism
summary
Prototype called Hua Ki i uses an image recognition prototype and a translation layer to return local Indigenous words, built by five people in five days at a CIfA-funded workshop in 2019. UX strips written text to symbols, uses an out‑of‑the‑box vision ML backend, and exposes failures: poor validation, orthography issues for spoken-only languages, geofencing and consent questions, and who controls language datasets. The working group publishes Out of the Black Box as ethical guidance. Performance is academic, not production ready.
