Women in AI Ethics™ hosted its first in-person summit in New York on Friday, December 1, 2023 to celebrate our 5year anniversary and announce the 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics™ list for 2024. This inspiring convening brought together women leaders to raise awareness about the growing AI divide and the urgent need to ensure that we are not leaving our most vulnerable communities behind in the race to an AI-powered future. You can watch recordings from all the sessions on our YouTube channel!

Artificial Intelligence (AI) touches all our lives but decisions about the future of AI are concentrated in the hands of a privileged few. The explosion of coding camps, some of which are predatory, and with media amplifying select voices from elite institutions has created a false perception that the male-dominated AI tech space is only open to those with programming skills, engineering degree, or a PhD.

Year 2021, December 2nd we have invited change-makers from the Women in AI Ethics community to inspire and guide us on the concrete actions we can all take for a more responsible AI/tech future. Join us as we explore different approaches to greater tech accountability along with their effectiveness as well as limitations.

We will also honor the 100 new voices in this space and highlight more brilliant women and non-binary folks in our Hall of Fame.

Technologists working on ethical and responsible AI are often dismissed as pessimists and luddites when in reality they are the much-needed voices of reason in an increasingly dystopian world where our every action is surveilled, exploited, and weaponized against us. The only way to realize the true potential of AI is by shifting our talents, collective energy, and investments to AI solutions that benefit all of humanity and not just the privileged few. It’s time to move away from ‘feel-good’ conversations and move towards ‘do-good’ ethical solutions.

December 3-5, 2020 as over 25 activists, social scientists, data scientists, engineers, artists, researchers, policy makers, anthropologists, and other brilliant women from technical AND non-technical backgrounds from around the world come together to showcase how diversity leads to more ethical and inclusive AI that works for ALL of us! Get ready for 3 days of inspiring talks, engaging workshops, insightful discussions and celebrate the brilliant women working hard to make sure that the AI includes ALL our voices.
