A robot operating with a popular internet-based artificial intelligence system consistently gravitates to men over women, white people over people of color, and jumps to conclusions about peoples' jobs after a glance at their face. The work, led in part by Georgia Tech, was presented and published last week at the 2022 Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency.
Congratulations to Ph.D. student LiChen for being part of a team that has come up with a dramatically faster algorithm for one of the oldest problems in computer science: maximum flow.
