After tinkering with robotics as a high school student in Tennessee, to developing mobile apps in Zambia as a Fulbright fellow, Buolamwini eventually found herself at MIT. As a graduate student at the "Future Factory," Buolamwini's groundbreaking research revealed that AI systems-from leading tech companies-were consistently failing on non-male, non-white bodies. In Unmasking AI, Buolamwini goes beyond the news headlines about racism, colorism, and sexism in Big Tech to tell the remarkable story of how she uncovered what she calls "the coded gaze"-evidence of racial and gender bias in tech-and galvanized the movement to prevent AI harms by founding the Algorithmic Justice League. Applying an intersectional lens to both tech industry and research sector, Buolamwini shows how race, gender, and ability bias can overlap and render broad swaths of humanity vulnerable in our AI- dependent world. Computers, she reminds us, are reflections of both the aspirations and the limitations of the people who create them"--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Buolamwini, Joy. 650 0 Artificial intelligence|xMoral and ethical aspects. 650 0 Artificial intelligence|xSocial aspects. 650 0 Artificial intelligence|xPhilosophy. 650 0 Discrimination in science. 650 0 Sex discrimination in science.
