NERD CORNER 🤓
AI Gender Bias
AI gender bias refers to unfair discrimination in AI systems where algorithms favor one gender over another. This bias often stems from the data used to train these systems, which may reflect existing societal stereotypes.
For instance, AI might assign stereotypical roles, such as male doctors and female nurses, or provide inaccurate medical diagnoses for women due to predominantly male-centric training data.
This bias can affect job recruitment, credit scoring, and healthcare, leading to inequitable outcomes. Addressing it requires diverse and representative training data.
