IEEE Global Initiative

The IEEE Global Initiative for Ethical Considerations in Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems

An incubation space for new standards and solutions, certifications and codes of conduct,
and consensus building for ethical implementation of intelligent technologies.

The IEEE mission is to ensure every stakeholder involved in the design and development of autonomous and intelligent systems is educated, trained, and empowered to prioritize ethical considerations so that these technologies are advanced for the benefit of humanity.

Designing Feminist Chatbots

The intervention is called the Feminist Chatbot Design Process (FCDP), which is a series of reflective questions incorporating feminist interaction design characteristics, ethical AI principles and research on debiasing data. The FCDP encourages design and development teams to follow the reflective questions at the conceptual design phase, and can be used by all team members (technical and non-technical). The outcome of the FCDP is that teams produce a chatbot design which is sensitive to feminist critiques of technology and AI, and grow their own awareness of the relationship between gender power relations and technology.

The FCDP can be found h ere.
