AI可助力建设更公平包容的数字世界,关键在消除语言偏见与提升透明度。

AI in Support of Diversity and Inclusion

  • 通过多学科协作优化大模型,使其理解文化差异并减少语言偏见。
  • 实证发现AI能识别媒体中的刻板印象内容,提升社会群体代表性。
  • 适合关注伦理AI、社会公平及无障碍技术的研究者与开发者。

本文探讨人工智能如何支持多样性与包容性,举例说明相关研究项目。尽管大型语言模型(如ChatGPT)具备强大能力,仍难以理解不同文化背景,且在机器翻译中可能强化社会不平等。解决此类偏见需跨学科方法,推动AI系统透明化,明确决策逻辑以建立信任。利用多样化的训练数据,如在「儿童生长监测」项目中改善营养与贫困问题,有助于实现包容性目标。此外,通过分析搜索引擎对LGBTQ+群体传播虚假信息的现象,揭示其潜在危害。同时,「SignON」项目展示了技术如何弥合听障与听力人士间的沟通鸿沟,强调合作与互信在构建包容性AI中的重要性。总体而言,本文倡导兼具有效性与社会责任感的AI系统,促进人机间公平互动。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In this paper, we elaborate on how AI can support diversity and inclusion and exemplify research projects conducted in that direction. We start by looking at the challenges and progress in making large language models (LLMs) more transparent, inclusive, and aware of social biases. Even though LLMs like ChatGPT have impressive abilities, they struggle to understand different cultural contexts and engage in meaningful, human like conversations. A key issue is that biases in language processing, especially in machine translation, can reinforce inequality. Tackling these biases requires a multidisciplinary approach to ensure AI promotes diversity, fairness, and inclusion. We also highlight AI's role in identifying biased content in media, which is important for improving representation. By detecting unequal portrayals of social groups, AI can help challenge stereotypes and create more inclusive technologies. Transparent AI algorithms, which clearly explain their decisions, are essential for building trust and reducing bias in AI systems. We also stress AI systems need diverse and inclusive training data. Projects like the Child Growth Monitor show how using a wide range of data can help address real world problems like malnutrition and poverty. We present a project that demonstrates how AI can be applied to monitor the role of search engines in spreading disinformation about the LGBTQ+ community. Moreover, we discuss the SignON project as an example of how technology can bridge communication gaps between hearing and deaf people, emphasizing the importance of collaboration and mutual trust in developing inclusive AI. Overall, with this paper, we advocate for AI systems that are not only effective but also socially responsible, promoting fair and inclusive interactions between humans and machines.
