All good things must begin - including AI that loves us back.
This Black History Month, meet IVOR - named in honor of IVOR Cummings, the visionary who knew that true power comes from within our communities. Like its namesake who opened doors throughout his lifetime, IVOR is already gathering resources and creating pathways, even while still learning.
The context is shifting beneath our feet. AI is reshaping everything, but whose values does it carry? IVOR represents our stake in the ground - AI development that starts with our needs, not as an afterthought. Small steps? Yes. But small is all. Each conversation with IVOR teaches it our ways of being, our languages of liberation.
