Equitable Algorithms: Designing AI for Positive Impact

As artificial intelligence (AI) takes over more and more aspects of our work and personal lives, how does it impact the way we and others–especially those from marginalized backgrounds–are treated?

With the rise of large language models (LLMs) trained on highly biased datasets and those writing algorithms lacking the lived experience and formal education to understand how and to what extent their creations are introducing, perpetuating, and exacerbating social and institutional biases, we are at a crossroads.

Join The Mathpath, Aubrey Blanche-Sarellano, for a deep dive into what the potential future of a machine-enabled world can look like, and walk away with practical ideas about how we can ensure that leaning into technology can create a fairer, more equitable future.
