Making Artificial Intelligence Understandable, Useful, and Human-Centered
Artificial intelligence is rapidly shaping how information is created, shared, and consumed. From news feeds and search results to images, audio, and automated decisions, AI now influences everyday life.
Yet for many people, AI feels distant, confusing, or threatening.
At OtownGist Creative Hub, we focus on AI literacy — helping people understand what AI is, how it works in practice, and how to use it responsibly within real social and cultural contexts.
Why us?

RESPONSIBLE USAGE
Why Responsible Technology Matters
AI is not neutral. The way it is designed and used affects:
what information people see
whose voices are amplified or silenced
how decisions are made
how trust is built or eroded
Responsible technology use requires informed users, ethical awareness, and cultural sensitivity — not blind adoption.
By building AI literacy, we help people engage with technology with confidence, not fear.
