Brand and gender bias in AI
Why are all the major AI “personal assistants” — from Alexa to Siri — created as females, often with stereotypical personality traits? Bias in AI and bot personalities is a real issue with profound implications for brands who create and use these tools for consumers and employees.
What you’ll learn
During this webinar, you’ll hear from two of the founding members of EquaAI — an initiative dedicated to stopping gender bias in AI — on why the issue is important, how it hurts us, and what can be done about it. LivePerson founder and CEO Robert LoCascio will share major lessons we learned from building Conversational AI at brands, including emerging practices to stop gender bias in AI. Carnegie Mellon Professor Justine Cassell is renowned for her work developing AI personalities and will share her insight as well.
