For Dr. Joy Buolamwini, addressing bias in data sets and algorithms, especially in facial recognition, is crucial to AI’s future. How do the data sets we use to train AI play into that? After years of research at MIT, founding of the Algorithmic Justice League, and becoming the “poet of code,” Dr. Joy has made it her mission to ask questions about inclusion in AI design, and address the answers. Dr. Joy joins Pioneers of AI to share how she uncovered the deep roots and impacts of bias in AI, and how to address it.

Pioneers of AI is made possible with support from Inflection AI.
