This presentation demonstrates a strategic AI-assisted workflow for developing culturally inclusive multimodal OER for language education that centers global communities beyond traditional French-centric narratives. Given persistent Internet and algorithm bias towards European French perspectives, creating truly diverse materials requires intentional intervention; "Francophone diversity" will not emerge accidentally from standard searches or AI queries. By leveraging carefully prompted AI tools for HTML-based visual content creation, contextualized audio scripts, and culturally grounded vocabulary materials, faculty can efficiently produce high-quality resources representing diverse regional voices. The session shares a replicable design process that positions AI as a collaborative tool requiring critical oversight and exxplicit AI literacy to democratize the cultures appearing in educational materials.
