Trust us, you don't need to be a techno-nerd to understand this podcast. We look at how women are faring (or not faring) in the exploding field of artificial intelligence. And if you don't think you use AI, think again. "You use AI in lots of invisible ways," says expert Meredith Broussard, such as every time you use a search engine or when you use facial recognition to unlock your phone or when you tell your home assistant to play the latest Taylor Swift album. The problem -- and this is disturbing -- is that decades and even centuries of bias are embedded in that AI technology, because of the limitations of the humans who built it. We look at how sexism and racism have wormed their ugly way into the AI we're using... and what we can do about it. Guests include Broussard, author of "Artificial Unintelligence," and Davar Ardalan, founder of AI startup IVOW.
