SUMMARY:The People AI Fails to See: Intersectional Invisability as a Test for Inclusive Design
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday, August 25, 2026 | 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM Eastern Time | 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM Central Time.\nFormat: Online/Virtual Event.\nNote: This webinar is 2 hours long.\nRegister for the webinar on Eventbrite ( https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-people-ai-fails-to-see-tickets-1997865796378 )\nWebinar Overview:\nIntersectional Invisibility as a Test for Inclusive Design: Disability, race, gender, neurodivergence, and the limits of compliance.\nAbout the Webinar:\nArtificial intelligence (AI) increasingly shapes how people access information, services, opportunities, and representation. Yet systems described as accessible or inclusive can still erase people whose identities and experiences sit at multiple intersections.\nIn this webcast, Jamaal Digital Davis will examine intersectional invisibility as a diagnostic test for inclusive design. Drawing from a contextual understanding of disability, he will explore how technology, policies, environments, data, and organizational decisions can either support participation or create new forms of exclusion.\nThe session will challenge checklist-based accessibility and examine the limits of representation, automated decision-making, and supposedly neutral data. It will also explore the critical role of human judgment, participatory research, and co-design with disabled people.\nParticipants will leave with practical questions for identifying who their systems fail to see and a clearer understanding of what inclusive designers, researchers, product teams, and institutions must do differently in the age of AI.\nAbout the Speaker:\nJamaal Digital Davis is a human-centered leader, inclusive service designer, and founder of the Inclusive Tech Club, a growing publication and community working to make inclusive technology the standard rather than the exception.\nHis work sits at the intersection of accessibility, service design, product strategy, and human-centered artificial intelligence. Across complex digital products and public-service environments, Jamaal examines how technology, organizational policies, data, and power structures can create barriers for people who are too often excluded from design decisions.\nHis writing and speaking challenge organizations to move accessibility beyond compliance and toward shared governance, accountability, and co-design with disabled and historically marginalized communities. He brings a systems-thinking perspective grounded in the belief that people are not the problem; environments and systems frequently create the disability.\nOrganized by: Institute for Human Centered Design ( https://humancentereddesign.org/ ).\n
