Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly and rapidly making its way into our digitalised society. Although AI can bring about benefits, such as optimising job search services for more equal work opportunities, it inherently comes with several risks, such as perpetuating and exacerbating harmful gender inequities and stereotypes in training data or generating hypersexualised content.
Join us for a panel discussion with four KU Leuven-experts who will bring different perspectives to our understanding of the impact of AI on women and gender. The event is open to anyone interested in this topic and requires no prior AI knowledge.
