Concordia’s Abundant Intelligences: AI Embraces Indigenous Wisdom

In early 2024, Concordia University kicked off the Abundant Intelligences program to tackle AI biases by weaving Indigenous knowledge systems into its fabric. Partnering with diverse institutions and communities, the initiative champions endangered languages and addresses vital environmental and health issues. By ditching the scarcity mindset, Concordia is pioneering inclusive, ethical AI—proving that when tech meets tradition, innovation thrives with a compassionate twist.
