in an algorithm. To do this, companies need to be auditing their AI for bias every step of the way, as the major labs are now doing. El Asri credited Canadian leaders, such as AI pioneerYoshua Bengio, for developing a will in Canada’s tech community to develop AI in a responsible ...
Eight Steps on How to Reduce Bias in AI Define and narrow the business problem you’re solvingTrying to solve for too many scenarios often means you’ll need a ton of labels across an unmanageable number of classes. Narrowly defining a problem, to start, will help you make sure your model...
Historical Cases of Bias in AI Below are three historical models with dubious trustworthiness, owing to AI bias that is unlawful, unethical, or un-robust. The first and most famous case, the COMPAS model, shows how even the simplest models can discriminate unethically according to race. The se...

Alongside bias, another subtle challenge in AI design is the Eliza effect — the tendency of users to ascribe more intelligence or human-like understanding to AI systems than they actually possess. Named after ELIZA, an early chatbot that simulated conversation by rephrasing user inputs, this eff...
overcome bias if they wish to maximize the true potential of this powerful technology," said Siva Ganesan, head of the AI Cloud business unit at Tata Consultancy Services. "However, depending on the data that Gen AI is trained on, the model learns and reflects that in its outputs,...
We are also reinforcing our bias in how we interact with AI. How often do you use a voice assistant like Siri, Alexa or even Cortana? They all have two things in common: one, they can never get my name right, and second, they are all female. They are designed to be our obedient ...
That's the topic for this week's podcast, where my guest is Polly, a talent matching platform. With Polly, we will try to understand how AI and behavioral science can help companies reduce bias in recruiting and finding the right person for the right place....
It's not clear whether bias can—or even should—be entirely eliminated from AI systems. Imagine you're an AI engineer and you notice your model produces a stereotypical response, like Sicilians being "stinky." You might think that thesolutionis to remove some bad examples in the training da...
Removing bias from AI In an attempt to reeducate my misbehaving network, I created a new training set that included three theater pieces by Shakespeare: two tragedies (“King Lear” and “Othello”) and one comedy (“Much Ado About Nothing”). I then retrained the network on this new trai...
