If you are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander and aged 18 years or over, we would love to hear from you.

This research aims to generate a deeper Indigenous-led understanding of how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples know, use, experience, and imagine artificial intelligence in everyday life.

Your insights will help shape important conversations about AI, Indigenous futures, governance, data sovereignty, and community priorities ✊🏻
