Maha Mamo was born stateless and lived in the shadows in Lebanon for 26 years. That means not being able to go to school, to the hospital, to travel. To exist. But Maha Mamo’s tireless fight to belong finally paid off in October 2018, when she gained Brazilian citizenship.

Maha Mamo was born stateless due to a web of restrictive laws on civil registration in Syria and Lebanon, the two countries she had ties to. She is determined to advocate for the rights of stateless persons, hoping to put an end to statelessness around the world. She also advocates for an end to discriminatory laws that prevent women from passing on their citizenship to their children.

“My seven year old self learnt to tell people what I thought they wanted to hear. By the age of eight I’d convinced the other kids that my hair was made of sponge… because being black it couldn’t be made of ‘hair’.”

Through her own personal story and the hair-raising experiences of other women and girls, Mena Fombo’s TEDxBristol talk is a witty, yet compelling and sometimes dark exploration of the objectification of black women. Its an issue she has spent a lifetime experiencing and exploring, with both a political and creative lens.

Mena is the driving force behind the international campaign “No. You Cannot Touch My Hair” which has attracted contributions from people across the UK and around the world. Over half the respondents said they had their hair touched on a monthly basis by people they’d never met before. 18% said it happened every week. The vast majority described the touching as intrusive, invasive and unwelcome. 90% of those responding identified as female, and the majority were black or of mixed race origin. Some said it felt like being petted in a zoo. Mena says: “We are not animals in zoos — #DONTTOUCH”.
Mena Fombo describes herself as a British Nigerian Bristolian through and through! She is a purposeful coach, facilitator, motivational speaker, consultant and activist with a background working in the arts, the voluntary sector and educational establishments across Europe, the USA, Africa and South Asia.

She is also the founder of The OJiJi Purple Project, a Bristol based non-profit that campaigns for equality, focusing on working with black women and girls through everyday activism, connecting communities and creativity. She is the curator of Bristol’s first Black Girls
Convention.

As a confident, black woman, who has overcome a lifetime of adversity and personal experiences of injustice, she has carved out a role for herself as a creative activist, working tirelessly to support the political, social and economic equality of black people and women. She is passionate about social change, the development of people, values-based leadership and creating powerful learning experiences.

Сергей Марков. Правда и мифы об искусственном интеллекте

Прогресс в сфере искусственного интеллекта порождает множество вопросов о будущем человечества, заставляет задуматься о его возможных сценариях. Что нас ждёт на самом деле?

Беспилотные полеты на другие планеты, идеальные преподаватели и компетентные врачи? Или, быть может, впереди порабощение или уничтожение человечества могущественными, но злонамеренными или дефектными машинами? Или и вовсе идилия — синтетическое единство людей и их творений?

Из лекции мы узнаем:

Что такое искусственный интеллект?
Может ли машина творить?
За счёт чего машины выигрывают у человека в настольные игры?
Победа машин в го: что стоит за громкой сенсацией?
Похожи ли на человеческий мозг вычислительные нейронные сети?
Нужно ли бояться восстания машин?

Мероприятие проводится совместно с интеллектуальным проектом «Санкт-Петербургские ведомости. Лекторий».

ВНИМАНИЕ! Оскорбления и мат на канале и в комментариях запрещены. Предупреждение и блок. Или сразу блок. Флудить тоже не рекомендую.
