Exploring the Intersection of AI and Gender: As we delve into the realm of Artificial Intelligence, it's essential to consider the impact of gender. Today, Ela Laevski led an amazing session sharing how AI technologies have the power to shape our future, but gender biases and underrepresentation persist in this space. Let's strive for gender equality in AI development, usage, and outcomes. Together, we can create a more inclusive and diverse AI landscape that serves the needs of all. #PromptYourFuture #IWD2024 #Amdocs #AI #GenderEquality #Inclusion #TechForAll"

As we witness the growing influence of AI, it's essential to explore its potential in advancing gender equality. The impact of AI technologies on creating more inclusive and diverse opportunities for all is undeniable. By leveraging AI to bridge gender gaps and empower women, we can lay the foundation for a more equitable future. At OpenTRD, we remain dedicated to driving positive change and advocating for gender equality through AI. Our ongoing efforts and collaborations are aimed at fostering an AI landscape that promotes diversity, equity, and inclusivity, contributing to a more balanced and fair society for all.

As awareness grows about responsible AI development, addressing gender equality remains a crucial yet underrepresented area. Our research from the 1st Edition of the Global Index on Responsible AI reveals that only 17% of surveyed countries have government frameworks addressing the intersection of gender and AI. Notably, civil society and academic institutions are currently leading efforts in this area. To achieve truly responsible AI, governments must prioritise gender equality within their AI governance frameworks. Learn more about this finding 🔗 https://buff.ly/3yel67Q
