The process of designing, developing, and implementing artificial intelligence (AI) is deeply influenced by discriminatory dynamics. The cross-sectoral application of these technologies compels us to address the complexity of the phenomenon from a critical and global perspective. Within this framework, the Global Digital Justice project, led by Oxfam Intermón and the Global Justice Directorate of the Barcelona City Council, focuses on the impacts of AI on inequalities.

The "Tecnología Solidaria" Meetups are regular open, inclusive, and free gatherings specially designed for third-sector organizations where we learn and share knowledge about technologies, platforms, and experiences related to the digital world. If you have an experience you think might be interesting or want to learn about a specific technology, come learn and share with us!

You may have heard of WordPress, but you might think it's only good for creating blogs or very simple websites with austere designs. Maybe you worked with WordPress years ago and are left with the impression that it's a tool that's fallen behind compared to other options. Or perhaps you've been using this CMS for a while, and although you have an idea of what new features it offers, you haven't had the time to stop and explore what it can do beyond the work routine you've created.

In this presentation, we will explore in a simple way how AIs are capable of understanding and processing large amounts of information. We will focus on embeddings, a key tool that allows a machine to convert words, images, and other data into numbers it can interpret. We will discover the wide range of applications this technology has, from improving internet search results to making the most well-known voice assistants smarter.
