Over the last few years, AI technologies have grown in adoption globally, and in parallel, concerns about gender risks. In fact, AI technologies tend to pose particularly risks to demographic groups that have historically been marginalised. For women, these risks have included discrimination – where AI tools have higher error rates for women than for men; stereoypting – where AI tools create content that perpetrate norms about women that are based on their sexualisation or inferiority; exclusion – where women are not part of the design, development or decision-making around the AI tools; and insecurity – where AI tools decrease the security of women. On the other hand, it is important to note the immense contributions of women in the AI space, as many women have led the development of new types of AI, have spearheaded its governance, and have conducted important research impacting the space. For all its risks, AI also can be promising for the socioeconomic empowerment of women, by developing new labour markets, supporting women’s security and other areas impacting gender equality. What is still lacking, however, is the mainstreaming of women’s rights and gender equality in AI development and governance. This panel hopes to address this gap by discussing the critical risks and opportunities of AI from a gender perspective, and charting actionable recommendations.
