In this session, we will discuss what a critical AI literacy may entail, with an emphasis on “critical” and caring approaches. We will experience and discuss concrete activities to develop different dimensions of critical AI literacy, including: understanding how it works, recognizing inequalities, biases and ethical issues, crafting effective prompts, and assessing appropriate use and non-use of AI.
