We are. I am. Aztecas del norte, mojados, Indigenous peoples, First Nations People, mestizos, Redskins, Indians, Native Americans, Natives, savages, minorities, at risk peoples or asterisks peoples are some names or codes the Indigenous body is subjected to using settler colonialist language.  To be named by the colonizer silences. To be categorized as a placeholder in a growing web of data is erasure. Both are violent. This dehumanization is enabled by a gilded history passed down through generations of underrepresented and now coded bodies, one that necessitates an interference which aims to undo this settler-colonialist structuring and catapult progress.  As a Native Studies and Artificial Intelligence scholar, I seek to combine the two energies, Indigeneity and AI, in order to contemporize the Indigenous experience by deeply exploring the social and cultural implications artificial intelligence has as a posthuman organism.
