How can we apply feminist frameworks to AI governance?

Could an intersectional feminist approach to participation, equity and justice help to address the social and political nature of structural inequalities that are baked into every aspect of the AI supply chain? We drew together a roomful of smart folks to discuss this at our September 19th Technology Salon in NYC:  Can Feminist Frameworks improve AI Governance?

Our fab lead discussants were: Jacqueline Hart, Senior Strategy Advisor, Feminist Humanitarian Network; Eleonore Fournier-Tombs, Head of Anticipatory Action and Innovation, United Nations; Tazin Khan, Founder and Executive Director, Cyber Collective; and Callie Rojewski, Director of Strategic Programming, Cyber Collective joined as lead discussants. Lina Srivastava provided stellar moderation of this wide-ranging discussion. Our gracious hosts for the discussion were Karl Brown and Shirl Haley at Thoughtworks.

Here’s a summary of the conversation.
