AI + Emerging Technology

AI is already here. Young people deserve more than a user manual.

BlackMuse helps learners explore artificial intelligence and emerging technology as tools to understand, question and build with—not simply consume.

What we explore

Six ways into AI & emerging technology

Tap or click any module to open it up. Every module is a starting point, not a lecture.

Technology changes quickly. The questions underneath it don't.

Model Behavior

Model Behavior explores what AI is being taught to value, refuse, protect and pursue — and what those judgments reveal about the human worlds from which these systems emerge. The series considers artificial and human models of behavior while examining questions of education, ethics, power, creativity, responsibility and the technologies we choose to build.

Model Behavior — a BlackMuse series

AI Education: Our Ancestors' Wildest Dreams?

Led by Taylor Tate, M.A. — Co-Founder & COO, BlackMuse

Questions the series asks

  • What happens when AI enters the classroom?
  • Who gets to decide what responsible use looks like?
  • What kinds of thinking should technology strengthen rather than replace?
  • Whose values are embedded inside the models we use?
  • What would it mean for communities to shape technology instead of simply receiving it?

The big question

What would it mean to bring Wakanda to the people — to imagine and build technologies capable of serving our communities rather than simply reproducing the systems around us?
