On August 14, 2026, ZeMKI member Dr. Adio-Adet Dinika appeared as a guest on the 74th episode of Rebecca Mbaya’s interview series “The African Innovators Series.” The title of the interview is “Dr. Adio-Adet Dinika on the Labor AI Refuses to Name.”
How much human labor goes into artificial intelligence? That is the central question of the interview. It examines how data workers help develop AI systems and what labor and power dynamics are associated with this work. Dinika advocates for greater involvement of the people behind AI in its design and regulation. His approach links issues of the digital workplace with global inequality and decolonial perspectives on technology.
