In an era where Artificial Intelligence promises unprecedented advancements, we must confront a critical question: Is AI driving us towards a more inclusive future, or is it unintentionally deepening societal divides? This talk will explore the paradox of AI's impact on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB). We'll delve into the hidden biases within AI systems, how they might be reinforcing exclusionary practices, and whether technology is undermining our efforts to create a diverse and equitable society. By examining real-world examples, this talk will reflect on the risks and opportunities AI presents, and what this means for the future of inclusivity in our workplaces and communities.
