Overview

Our Ethical AI Research Initiative seeks to shift how artificial intelligence is developed and shared by placing consent and authorship at the center. This page supports that mission by sustaining rigorous study, open collaboration, and responsible dissemination of findings. We aim to create practical tools and guidelines that honor contributors, protect participant rights, and foster trust across industries and communities. The work is global in reach and local in impact, designed to be accessible to researchers, educators, and practitioners alike.

Through steady support, the initiative can broaden access to datasets, publish transparent methodologies, and strengthen governance that reflects diverse perspectives. This is not about a single donation; it is about sustaining a principled research program that remains open and inclusive for years to come.
