Abstract

How is gender relevant in AI? Looking beyond gender bias in algorithms, we will present two ongoing projects (with Laetitia Tanqueray and Lory Bock) showing the need for society to question the status quo to develop more trustworthy AI tools. Additionally, social roboticist, Ginevra Castellano, and gender scholar, Mia Liinason, will discuss and highlight interdisciplinary research needs in gender issues. Moderated by Stefan Larsson.
