About Us …
We are:
a citizen focused effort devoted to teaching about Artificial Intelligence literacy as we curate, unpack, ponder, design and deliver impactful, fun, educational presentations for all ages.
Our purpose is to:
help citizens to overcome conflict, alienation and fear of AI – to awaken and empower everyone to take control over their own personal data and manage the inevitable changes technology brings.
Our presentations are:
developed for non-technical audiences who are the consumers of AI but not makers of AI – those who are curious about Artificial Intelligence but haven’t had an opportunity or the time to investigate the nuances and developments that are taking place everyday.
Recent testimonials:
“You really are instrumental in building our communities knowledge in emerging technologies so they can advance as confident digital citizens.”
“Your performance—singing and playing guitar—added an extra layer of magic to your presentation.”
“Keith touched upon AI algorithms, biases and agencies and that AI is everywhere. He made use of guitar, singing, dancing, puzzles and group discussions to engage participants – it was very interactive.”
“We have one of the best facilitators I’ve ever seen in Keith McDonald. After seeing him do a presentation on Artificial Intelligence literacy, I became an enthusiastic member of the literacy AI project itself.”
“Keith is one of those multi-disciplinary wizards who pull together several important elements that make him a powerful ally and strong partner. Fundamentally, his heart is really pure and that carries across as credibility and brings inspiration. And above that, he is a masterful content creator, he sees meaningful connections and is well able to communicate them. Plus he can draw an audience in and make them feel included which promotes participation. Really good guy, highly skilled.”
Our Team …
Yes, we are a small team but we sure get
LARGE RESULTS
Keith McDonald
Founder | Chief Curator | Presenter
I provide the metaphoric recipes, cooking and delivery for the literacy AI project. And what I cook up is simple: I make Artificial Intelligence fun and understandable to sort out “good” AI from “bad” AI. I don’t pull any punches but leave plenty of room for attendees to make their own evaluations.
I bring well over 10,000 hours of presenting experience and I learned early on I could entertain as I teach to make complex subject matter really interesting and lots of fun.
Francisca Fortes
Curator | Consulting Partner
I’m an extra pair of eyes for the project. I objectively look at the bits and pieces Keith puts together to provide critical review and feedback/suggestions to make sure the work resonates well and is truly understandable.
I also provide organizational discipline to all the disparate items Keith creates and uses – ranging from his original video clips, to comedy routines, to AI maker interviews – all making AI literacy come alive.
