Think back to the last time you washed your hands under a touchless water faucet (at the airport, a gas station, any public restroom). Did it easily turn on for you? Chances are it did—if you have light skin. That’s because the infrared technology automatic water and soap dispensers use responds better to light skin tones.
Dr. Dédé Tetsubayashi is a product equity, inclusion and tech ethicist who has spent her career developing products that create space for existence—all existence. In this episode, Dédé and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy discuss the AI race since the launch of ChatGPT, the dangerous biases baked into AI, and how we can build technology that dismantles systems of oppression.
