**How to overcome AI’s biased perceptions of gender**

In a world where AI increasingly shapes how we see and represent ourselves, understanding how these systems interpret gender is crucial. Gender is deeply personal and much more than just anatomy, but AI systems often reduce this complexity to simple binary classifications.

To explore this topic, we’re excited to welcome **Dr** **J. Rosenbaum**, a Melbourne-based AI artist, researcher and lecturer, who will share key findings and artwork projects from their PhD focused on AI perceptions of gender. J’s research explores how AI interprets and represents gender, challenging the binary frameworks that dominate machine learning to expand them beyond biological essentialism.

**In this session, J. will cover:**

* How and why AI perceives gender
* Why gender is fundamentally misunderstood by machine learning systems
* The implications for visual representation present in generative people images
* How de-biasing data affects generative images

We’ll also have ample time for Q&A with J. – feel free to send us your questions in advance or bring them to the event.
