Shout out from post,  "When Robots are an Instrument of Male Desire"

7/18/2017

 
There has been surging interest in sexism in Artificial Intelligence design, largely because there are so many heinous examples to point to right now.  This article, "When Robots are an Instrument of Male Desire," by Katherine Cross from The Establishment points to the debacle that was Tay AI, and loops in the standard players like Siri, Cortana, and even Microsoft's Ms. Dewey, with whom I am intimately familiar.  I was pleased to come across this article and see some of my research on Ms. Dewey as a part of the conversation! Cheers, Katherine!
