- Abstract: This research examines the impact of digital neo-colonialism on the Global
South and encourages the development of legal and economic incentives to
protect Indigenous cultures globally. Data governance is discussed in an
evolutionary context while focusing on data sharing and data mining. Case
studies that exemplify the need to steer global data law towards protecting the
earth, while addressing issues of data access, privacy, rights, and colonialism
in the global South are explored. The case studies highlight connections to
indigenous people's rights, in regard to the protection of environmental
ecosystems, thus establishing how data law can serve the earth from an
autochthonous lens. This framework examines histories shaped by colonialism and
suggests how data governance could be used to create healthier balances of
power.

This position paper proposes a data-centric viewpoint of AI research, focusing on large language models (LLMs)
We make the key observation that data is instrumental in the developmental (e.g., pretraining and fine-tuning) and inferential stages (e.g., in-context learning) of LLMs.
We identify four specific scenarios centered around data, covering data-centric benchmarks and data curation, data attribution, knowledge transfer, and inference contextualization.

We present our novel lightweight (only 89k parameters) Convolution Neural Network (ConvNet) to make LC classification and analysis.
In this work, we combine three real-world open data sources to obtain 13 channels.
Our embedded analysis anticipates the limited performance in some classes and gives us the opportunity to group the most similar.

This study presents a framework that identifies the risks and consequences along the workflow of collecting, processing, storing, using of data.
Fundamental to this framework is the novel concept of "data colonialism" which describes today's trend of private companies appropriating the digital sphere.
