Shaping a more inclusive and ethical AI landscape
Save the Date! We are excited to officially launch the Feminist Generative AI Lab through the Symposium “Feminist AI: Shaping Ethical Futures”. Please join the Feminist Generative AI Lab, Mondai | House of AI and Convergence AI, D&D on November 19th. More info and the full program will be published here soon!
When – Symposium on November 19th 14.00 – 17.00 and PhD workshop on November 20th in the morning
Where – Mondai | House of AI, Next Delft (TU Delft Campus)
What – We explore the intersections of artificial intelligence, ethics, and feminist approaches to technology in a dialogue about the future of AI through a feminist lens. It is a conversation for all genders about less dominant alternatives, bridging binary oppositions, and embracing pluralism and differences in the design and development of AI.
The event will bring together international keynote speakers to discuss critical questions about responsible AI development, bias mitigation, and the societal and environmental impact of AI technologies, followed by a panel. Join us to network, exchange ideas, explore questions on how to adopt feminist theories as a force of change, and collaborate across academia, practice and for a more inclusive and ethical AI landscape!
Lab Directors
Dr. Sara Colombo (Co-Director), Assistant Professor in Designing responsible AI at the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering, TU Delft. Dr. Colombo’s research explores innovative approaches for the ethical design of AI applications and the critical examination of their societal impact. Her work involves engaging communities in envisioning AI futures with an emphasis on inclusivity and a participatory approach.
Dr. Francisca Grommé (Co-Director), Assistant Professor in Digitalisation in Work and Society at the EUR department of Sociology, and AIPact TopTalent Research fellow. As an ‘ethnographer of data and AI’ she follows these technologies across different domains of work to understand how they affect marginalized groups, social justice, governance arrangements and the quality of work.
The Feminist Generative AI Lab is an initiative of TU Delft and Erasmus University Rotterdam and is funded by Convergence. For more information on the programme or the lab please check Convergence AI, D&D or Mondai | House of AI.
