IBA Virtually There 2020 Webinar: Fighting bias in the age of machine learning and artificial intelligence

25 November 2020 Zoom Webinar

Continuing developments in machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) have raised concerns that algorithms may be unfairly or even illegally biased. This session will allow participants to hear from and interact with leading specialists in the fields of machine learning and AI as they intersect with ethics and the law, in order to understand if eliminating bias in machine learning is possible or even desirable from a technical standpoint. At the same time the panel will address questions of discriminatory bias, specifically in gender issues but also more broadly. Panellists will address ways in which such discriminatory bias can be fought for a better inclusion of specifically women at workplace.
