The training data for AI large language models mixes up Wikipedia articles with random text from social media trolls and commercial sponsors. Many voices are excluded, from the girls not being educated in Afghanistan, to the women who teach their own families all over the world. Your goal is to make an alternative wiki architecture, where the benchmark of authority is not who has the most money or followers, but the best reflection of those voices. You’ll need to think about what motivates women to spend their time this way, what kind of devices they have access to, and what makes knowledge reliable. Your prototype might be a small start, but the AI of the future depends on a better way of understanding what is meaningful, and Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales should be available to discuss this with you.
