The French Embassy in Germany is organising a Franco-German dialogue on gender bias in AI with other partners such as bidt.
ChatGPT, autonomous driving, DeepSeek, chatbots, deepfakes: artificial intelligence is everywhere. But does AI produce discriminatory results? How do gender-related bias effects come about? How can they be prevented? What technical and political solutions are there or need to be developed?
Experts from France and Germany answer these questions to provide insight into the ethical challenges of AI and at the same time take a look into the future.
