SUMMARY:Brown Bag Series - Framing Discussions on Racism\, Bias\, and AI
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Carmen Saunders Russell  \nIn Person (UL 30) & Via Zoom (Hyflex)  \nDescription: The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into society offers transformative opportunities but also introduces substantial ethical\, legal\, and safety challenges. This brown bag discussion will examine current research on the factors that shape the trustworthiness of AI systems\, including how racism and other forms of bias can emerge through data\, design\, and deployment. Discussions will center on five core areas: data quality\, algorithmic bias\, opacity\, safety and security\, and responsibility attribution. \nJoin the event on Zoom\n*If you require an ASL interpreter\, please contact your department. \n**For Zoom captions – please pre-enable automated captions/transcript on the Zoom website (not the app) before the meeting begins as it cannot be turned on while the meeting is running.

SUMMARY:Data Reflects Society - Brown Bag #2
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Dr. Carmen Saunders Russell  \nIn Person (UL 30) & Via Zoom (Hyflex)  \nDescription: Data doesn’t just describe society—it reflects its power dynamics and blind spots\, so AI trained on that data can quietly absorb and scale historical bias (race\, gender\, disability\, class) into “automated” decisions 🤖. In this brown bag\, we’ll unpack how that inheritance happens and what ethical model training can look like in practice—stronger data governance\, bias testing and monitoring\, community-informed design\, and accountability that goes beyond a checkbox ✅.  \nJoin the event on Zoom\n*If you require an ASL interpreter\, please contact your department. \n**For Zoom captions – please pre-enable automated captions/transcript on the Zoom website (not the app) before the meeting begins as it cannot be turned on while the meeting is running.
