Data bias and the Future of AI
AI is entangled in every aspect of our lives, from the workplace to healthcare. Trillions are being invested in the promise that it will make things faster, smarter and more accurate. But artificial intelligence can only ever be as good as the data we feed it and thanks to the gender data gap, most AI models have been trained on skewed data which leads to skewed decision-making, missed opportunities and poorer outcomes. But it doesn’t have to be this way. In this talk Caroline lays out the possibilities and pitfalls of this new tool, identifying key lessons from the past and crucial steps for the future, that will enable us to harness the promise of AI for everyone.
