Bias in Voice & AI

Details
AI is coining many of today’s and even more of tomorrow’s technologies. As powerful as AI is, we need to keep in mind that it is only as good as its teachers and the data we feed it. With AI controlling various aspects of our lives, we need to make sure, it is inclusive, plural and treats everyone equally. But we are not there yet: from facial recognition working worse for People of Color to soap dispensers not being able to recognize darker skin tones, we see Bias in AI everywhere.
We are very much looking forward to our speakers from IBM & Vodafone sharing their expertise on the topic with us.
The meetup will be held in English.
