This conversation challenges listeners to rethink AI not as neutral, but as deeply tied to land, community, and responsibility. Through Indigenous teachings, legal frameworks, and personal stories, the guests offer pathways for ethical AI use in education—rooted in reciprocity, environmental justice, and the wisdom of seven generations. This episode is a call to educators to center Indigenous perspectives in shaping the future of technology.
