Accountability for AI - Remediating Bias in Machines

This session will explore prevalent questions and concerns regarding the human rights risks and opportunities in the use of machine learning and AI. What does it mean to be transparent and accountable in the use of AI? And how do we identify and address potential bias in the use of AI? Through a multi-stakeholder discussion, the session aims to achieve a better understanding of the human rights risk and opportunities in the use of AI, in order to have more informed dialog and work towards effective remediation of the risks and pursuit of the opportunities to advance human rights.
