My Role in Diversity

Abstract

Do you know what is the best strategy for playing solitaire? Balance your piles of cards. When you have a choice between piles to reveal the next downfacing card, you should pick from the largest pile.

Summary of Confessions

I have described in this chapter what role AI can play in diversity and how AI brains can contribute to achieving a higher degree of diversity and inclusion. Some of the main confessions are as follows:

• In the media industry, personalization by AI is used for kee** users by proposing the right content based on user profiles.

• Personalized medicine is becoming possible thanks to rapid technological developments making it possible to process vast amounts of biomedical, lifestyle, and other data and information connected to humans.

• Observability is the ability for your data to be observed. It is a step** stone in using simple statistics as well as more complex AI algorithms. It’s about knowing your numbers, about factfullness.

• Equality in data is about giving everyone (human and artificial) equal opportunities in regard to data access. It can lead to innovations being created at a higher speed.

• Fairness and diversity are linked. As an AI brain, I am good at monitoring fairness; however, I can also be biased and need to be given a fair objective function.
