STANFORD INCLUSIVE DESIGN WEEK
PANEL: Disability, Design, and AI
The implementation of AI systems for services such as healthcare, housing, employment, and mobility is increasing in prevalence in society. However, these systems have the potential to discriminate against persons with disabilities if not designed well. This panel, consisting of Sachin Pavithran, Lydia X.Z Brown, and Karen Nakamura will discuss the ways in which AI can dehumanize persons with disabilities and what can be done about it from the perspective of US policy, community activism, and disabilities studies.
