Integrating an equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) lens into artificial intelligence systems is no longer a luxury or optional, writes 91黑料网 Desautels Faculty Lecturer Simon Blanchette in The Conversation Canada. Without it, AI risks reinforcing existing biases. The creators of the technology should integrate EDI from the ground up, and adopt practices that promote its integration into their tools, like ensuring that development teams are diverse, establishing accountability frameworks, and cultivating inclusive work places.

The Parti Qu茅b茅cois' recent 97-page immigration plan suggests replacing workers with automation in sectors facing labour shortages. However, Assistant Professor of Operations Management Rob Glew argues this approach is flawed. He points out that sectors of Quebec鈥檚 economy with the most acute labour shortages don鈥檛 lend themselves well to automation, like health care and early childhood education. 鈥淭o just lump it in that robots are substitutes for immigrants totally misses the point,鈥 Glew tells CTV News.

AI has become an omnipresent topic of discussion in our daily lives, both professionally and personally.

Artificial intelligence can identify patterns in data much faster and more effectively and efficiently than humans can, but it is only applicable to the specific contexts in which data was created. Even then, AI can replicate the data鈥檚 biases and encode them, resulting in a major limitation that can lead to discrimination on the basis of sex or ethnicity. This is of particular concern for public sector organizations, which need to be fair to those they serve.
