Excited to share that I will host a discovery session at TEDAI 2026! I can't wait to meet TED Speakers like OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger, digital labor rights advocate Kauna Malgwi, and AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton, and hear about the AI ideas that move our world.

Looking ith fellow AI decision-makers, builders, thinkers, critics, and enthusiasts from around the world—all united by our ambitious mission of re-imagining a future truly worth building.

From October 28-30, the program brings together four electrifying sessions of 20+ TED Talks and performances by extraordinary speakers, and more than 40 bucket-list AI discovery sessions (including mine!) to experiment, create and learn together.

Many thanks to Kauna Malgwi for her engaging talk about the human cost associated with artificial intelligence and the psychological ramifications.

Thank you to @lolamargaret_ for organizing this afternoon's event.

It still feels surreal and like a dream to stand and speak before 1,300 participants from over 50 countries who attended @TEDAIVienna, Austria and got a STANDING OVATION to share my lived experience as an African content moderator yesterday, 30th Oct 2026.

Last month we ended the one year pilot program through the second and final cohort for the psychological evaluation and therapy.

Please donate and support this very important work so we can continue through our website or DM us: lnkd.in/dPh8JVcu

Help share our story

I am using my clinical and lived experience to support and provide psychological individual and group therapy sessions pro bono with the pilot funding support from The Distributed AI Research Institute (DAIR) through the Data Workers' Inquiry.

I want to specifically thank Alina, Dominique Jambor, Vlad Gozman and the entire TEDAI Vienna team who made this possible and gave me a global stage. I found myself doing advocacy for myself and my African data workers, I never choose or planned this path in life but it chose me.

stage, a friend, a colleague and sister who died in March 2025 under some mysterious, unknown circumstances after going home from work and was found three days later, yet, justice haven’t been served till today and she might be forgotten by many. I can’t forget Ladi!

I didn’t speak only for myself, but for many of my colleagues who can’t speak out due to the difficult circumstances they find themselves in.

For me, this is a constant reminder that keeps me up at night, I remember Ladi Anzaki Olubummi, (a TikTok content moderator)right on

We are pleased to introduce Chioma Agwuegbo, Executive Director TechHerNG as one of our panellist for the conference conversation on the people behind AI.

For World Mental Health Day, HumAngle and Digital Rights and Mental Health Initiative DRMHI.
