AI for all: defining the what, why, and how of inclusive AI

Published: 06 February 2020 Publication History

Abstract

There has been a growing awareness of Artificial Intelligence's (AI) inherent biases, limitations, and the challenges in overcoming them. As AI is integrated into to all things technical, there is a valid concern over its diversity, inclusiveness, and accessibility. However, questions such as what does it mean for AI to be inclusive, why is inclusive AI required, and how can it be achieved, largely remain unanswered. In this paper, we highlight these issues to initiate discussions on what it means for AI to be inclusive.
