Abstract

Influence on the design of Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms inherently encodes their understanding of the world through the Western lenses despite the world views being many. This has led to knowledge presentation from Western ideologies thus biased and not considering the Global South. Thus, AI as designed can only mimic through pattern recognition of what it is provided with, currently the Western ideology. Knowledge as presented as generated could be said to be a gap in what arises in the knowledge acquired and in the interpretation of that knowledge. Thus, the question arises as to whether AI can duplicate human expertise in processing knowledge and reasoning within a universally agreed upon frame. The author intends to come up with a conceptual framework of African voices and AI to guide process and practice.
