ABSTRACT
This paper examines distribution and use of arguments related to women in the IBM Debater Claims and Evidence database to showcase an importance of feminist thinking in designing technology like Wearable Reasoner (WR)—a proof-of-concept wearable system for augmenting human reasoning— which used data from said source. Design thinking from a feminist perspective has an empirical and a pedagogical value as it allows designers to think critically regarding whose voice, agency and positionality are represented while designing certain technology.
