Understanding AI and Gender Perception

Does Your AI Have a Gender? When we interact with AI, our perceptions of gender come into play, often as a result of the voice chosen for voice assistants or chatbots. However, AI itself does not possess gender. The anthropomorphization of these systems can inadvertently enforce stereotypes and biases. It's vital to recognize that any gendered characteristics are reflections of human choice and societal biases rather than an intrinsic aspect of the AI.
