Spain launches AfrofeminasGPT, chatbot designed to counter racial bias in AI systems

A Spanish developer has created AfrofeminasGPT, a chatbot trained on Black feminist and decolonial thought to address racial and gender discrimination embedded in artificial intelligence systems. According to Al Jazeera, the project responds to documented evidence that AI systems trained on biased data perpetuate discrimination in hiring, criminal justice, and other high-stakes applications. The initiative illustrates how alternative AI training frameworks can challenge discriminatory patterns built into mainstream language models. As AI systems increasingly influence consequential decisions globally, the project raises questions about whose knowledge and values shape algorithmic design.
