Conceptual artwork representing Narrative Consent and Voice Ethics in AI design

Ethical Design in Artificial Intelligence asks not only what technology can do, but what it normalizes: what habits, hierarchies, and assumptions it quietly encodes into daily life.

 

To design ethically is to treat design not as decoration, but as moral architecture—the choices that decide who is heard, who is seen, and who is safe.

The Future of AI Is Relational
AI will succeed or fail on whether people believe it belongs in their lives. That belief is earned through voices that respect culture, honor consent, and tell stories people trust. 
 

Narrative Consent
When AI shapes how you experience information—through tone, framing, or emotional calibration—you deserve to know that shaping exists and consent to it. I call this governed consent: systems that feel responsive while operating inside invisible algorithmic boundaries.

 

My Approach
Leveraging expertise from Fortune 500 governance and a filmmaker's eye for narrative, we implement the proprietary Narrative Consent Framework. 20+ years producing stories across Africa, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Europe taught me this: what feels supportive in one culture reads as intrusive in another. Voice isn’t neutral—it’s cultural.

 

This framework shapes Architectural Disclosure, allowing AI to be structurally honest about its boundaries, capacity, and role.
