The world has a gender equality problem, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) mirrors the gender bias in our society. Although globally more women are accessing the internet every year, in low-income countries, only 20 per cent are connected. The gender digital divide creates a data gap that is reflected in the gender bias in AI.
Who creates AI and what biases are built into AI data (or not), can perpetuate, widen, or reduce gender equality gaps.
