A UN-related institute has created two AI-driven avatars designed to teach people about refugee issues.
404 media wrote that an experiment conducted by the UN University’s Center for Policy Research led to the creation of two AI agents or avatars – Amina, Amina, a fictional woman who fled Sudan and lived in a refugee camp in Chad, while Abdalla, a small fictional soldier of Sudan, was a rapid support force with Sudan In Sudan In Sudan In Sudan In Sudan.
Users should be able to talk to Amina and Abdalla on the experimental site, although I received an error message when I tried to sign up on Saturday afternoon.
Eduardo Albrecht, a Colombia professor and senior fellow at UNU-CPR, told 404 Media that he and his students were “just talking about the concept” rather than suggesting that this is the UN’s solution.
Papers that summarize this work show that these avatars can ultimately “quickly defend the donor.” However, it also noted that many workshop participants interacting with agents responded to negatives, such as saying that refugees “have the ability to speak for themselves in real life.”
