AI AND EQUITY: How Do We Navigate Bias and Fairness?

Join Yulia Pavlova, former AI Director at Reuters, for an in-depth webinar addressing one of the most pressing issues in the intersection of artificial intelligence and journalism: ensuring fairness and equity as AI takes a central role in media and news.

In the rapidly evolving media landscape, AI-powered tools are revolutionizing how information is accessed, personalized, and distributed. While these technologies promise expanded access and more tailored experiences, they also bring new challenges. Algorithms can inadvertently perpetuate biases—impacting public perceptions, deepening societal divides, and misrepresenting diverse voices.

This session will explore:

• How leading news organizations deploy AI to deliver fair, comprehensive, and accessible content.
• Real-world examples of how AI-driven innovations are reshaping the industry, with a focus on ethical use and equity.
• The specific risks of accent, nationality, and gender bias in AI-powered content analysis and distribution.
• Actionable strategies to detect, address, and mitigate bias within AI systems.
• Best practices for building ethical and impartial AI functionalities that uphold public trust and foster inclusive narratives.

Whether you’re in media, tech, or a related field, this webinar will equip you with practical approaches and insights to ensure AI enhances—rather than hinders—fairness in news and information. Don’t miss this thought-provoking session led by a recognized industry expert.
