About Ask DominicaAsou Mandé Dominik

A sovereign AI helper for the people of Dominica, the Kalinago Territory and visitors.An asistan AI souvren pou moun Dominik, Tèritwa Kalinago-a épi vizitè.

Ask Dominica answers everyday questions about business, government services, education, transport and tourism, in English and Kwéyòl. It works from a list of approved Dominican and Kalinago sources, which it reads and keeps up to date, rather than from the whole internet.

Mandé Dominik ka réponn kèsyon chak jou asou biznis, sèvis gouvènman, lédikasyon, transpò épi touwis, an Anglé épi an Kwéyòl. I ka travay épi an lis sous dominikéz épi kalinago ki apwouvé, ki i ka li épi kenbé a jou, pa épi tout entènèt-la.

Waitukubuli, “tall is her body”, is the Kalinago name for the island. The Kalinago are Dominica’s indigenous people, and the Kalinago Territory on the east coast has its own elected Chief and Council.

Waitukubuli, “gran sé kò’y”, sé non Kalinago-a ba lil-la. Pèp Kalinago-a sé pèp endijenn Dominik, é Tèritwa Kalinago-a asou kòt lès-la ni pwòp Chèf li épi Konsèy li moun ka vòté.

The AI model, the information it reads and the questions people ask all stay on infrastructure under sovereign control. Nothing is sent to an outside AI company, and nobody’s questions are used to train someone else’s product.

Modèl AI-a, enfòmasyon i ka li épi kèsyon moun ka mandé, tout ka rété asou an striktiwè ki anba kontwòl souvren. Nou pa ka voyé anyen bay pyès konpanni AI déwò, é nou pa ka sèvi kèsyon pyès moun pou fòmé pwodui an lòt moun.

It runs on Boudica, a self-hosted AI platform.

I ka maché asou Boudica, an platfòm AI ki ka maché asou pwòp sèvè’y.

The Kwéyòl on this site was written with AI help and is being checked by native speakers.

Kwéyòl-la asou sit-la ékwi épi lèd AI, é moun ki ka palé’y dépi nésans ka vérifyé’y.
