Women in AI Ethics™ Asia Pacific Summit
Women in AI Ethics™ Asia Pacific Summit
On November 11 2020, the Women in AI Ethics™ Collective - Australia held their first Asia Pacific summit. The summit brought together women and allies from around the world to discuss the current state of diversity + ethics in AI and build meaningful action plans for progress through inspiring panel discussions, workshops, and lightning talks.
Event Description: Pervasive bias in algorithms and flawed Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems pose significant risks to humanity. These problems require urgent discussion, concrete action to reduce harm, increase accountability, and collectively shape the types of outcomes we want to see from AI. However, we cannot have a meaningful discussion about the consequences and ethics of AI without including marginalized and underrepresented groups around the world in these critical conversations.
