Workshop: Coming Together to Create Unbiased Data Powered by Dentsu

We are at a truly exciting crossroads in AI, analytics, and automation. However, when we build target audiences, we look at a few attributes of a group of people and then treat them all the same. When we build AIs, they replicate society’s flaws. And, when we advertise on social media, we use algorithms that keep people’s attention - by making them angry. Join this workshop to explore bias issues in data and AI, and practical, common-sense, solutions to help alleviate them.
