| Challenge: | Existing data collection approaches to generative AI are inadequate to assess its safety and utility. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual stereotype resource that uses socioculturally-situated, community-engaged methods to assess the region’s linguistic diversity and traditional orality. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method covers four sub-Saharan African countries that are severely underrepresented in NLP resources: Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa. |
