Professor Ciraj Rassool gives 100th KwaaiDay talk about his research on the historical trade of skeletons and dead bodies in South Africa at the turn of the 20th century. He discussed how European anthropologists collected remains for museums, leading to a report in 1909 that exposed these practices. This research resulted in the return of remains to South Africa in 2012, where they were reburied in Kuruman. The talk highlighted the importance of re-humanizing AI and the need to consider ethical implications in the democratization of technology.
