Diversity in AI is one of the major ethical challenges that this technology brings us.
The share of women in AI is 22% in the world, 19% in Switzerland, 5% in France….
What is at stake? How can we “reconcile” men and women in the world of work? What can we learn from movements such as the Guerrilla Girls to increase the presence of women as a first step towards diversity?
