It’’s so important to understand that AI is based on large language models. Large Language models inherently include bias. Overcoming that bias in resume review and candidate selected for interview is so important in bringing qualified candidates to the table.

It was a delight to contribute as a panelist at the 2024 OU Women & Gender Studies Center for Social Justice's Teach OUt On Race Conference on "Navigating the Intersection of AI, Technology, and Race: Addressing Bias and Promoting Equity" this week! I'd like extend a special thanks to Dr. Rodney Bates, Kayla Storrs, MPH, Adisha Waghmarae, and the Teach OUt On Race Committee for organizing this deeply enriching and interdisciplinary conference on AI ethics. Teaming up with OU IT assistant director and seasoned expert Millard B. Latimer II, we addressed the critical need to confront bias and promote equity in AI. Our conversation underscored the importance of strengthening AI literacy among policymakers, industry leaders, and the general public. Our seminar also delved into strategies to regulate racial equity and bias mitigation in tomorrow's machine learning models, aligning with the Teach OUt On Race committee's shared mission of making AI accessible, interpersonal, and helpful to all global identities. We firmly believe that advocates in the arts and social sciences, including psychology, philosophy, sociology, and ethics, belong in the room where influential AI decisions are made. Given AI's profound impact on our lives and its trajectory of exponential growth, AI literacy and awareness are becoming increasingly vital skills for navigating the digital age. Let's work together to enable informed decisions about AI use and regulation for a more equitable future. #aiethics #ailiteracy #ailegislation #dei #equity #inclusion #aiandhumanity #aiandsociety #aiforall #socialjustice #womeninai Photo credit: Sprout Social, 2023.

The article "Understanding viral justice" by Dr. Ruha Benjamin in Massachusetts Institute of Technology News highlights the structural inequities in new technologies, emphasizing that these biases are integral to their design and implementation, often worsening discrimination under the guise of progress. She points out the pervasive gender and racial biases in AI applications like facial recognition and predictive analytics, which, despite being seen as advancements, negatively impact marginalized communities. This perspective urges a critical examination of how AI and data technologies are developed and deployed, calling for a reimagining of these systems to ensure they serve justice and equity.

Algorithmic Bias: Why Facial Recognition Misses the Mark for Black Women Facial recognition (FR) technology has become increasingly prevalent, but a critical issue lurks beneath the surface: racial bias. Studies have shown that FR systems are more likely to misidentify Black faces, particularly those of Black women. This raises serious concerns about fairness and equity in its application. This problem was showcased in the #aiexhibition at Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona (CCCB) #FacialRecognition algorithms are trained on massive datasets of faces. Often, these datasets lack diversity, leading the AI to struggle with recognizing faces outside the majority demographic. For Black women, this means a higher chance of being falsely identified or missed altogether. This bias can have serious consequences. In law enforcement, for example, inaccurate FR can lead to mistaken arrests and exacerbate racial profiling. #FacialRecognitionBias #AI #FR #DiversityInTech #RacialEquity
