[AISWorld] Queer and Gender perspectives on AI

[Cathy Urquhart]

Dear All,

These seminars in March and April may be of interest.

Dear members of the TechnAct research cluster,

I hope this email finds you all well (in these troubling times).

This spring I am arranging a series of talks at Humlab, Umeå University about queer- and gender perspectives on AI and algorithms, that I believe can be of interest to you. Please spread widely in your networks and welcome to participate!
All the talks are held on ZOOM, CET time zone, and require pre-sign up for safety reasons. Follow the links below to sign up.
