Search engine giant has finally made progress to curb gender bias between male and female in Google Translate has plans to implement a similar fix in other S suite services.
Google engineers, earlier in the year, noticed that their Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered smart compose on Gmail had developed gender bias. Most of the time, if a high-profile job designation gets mentioned in the mail, for instance –there is meeting with an investor, the Gmail smart compose seems to project the ‘investor’ has a ‘male’.
They couldn’t fix it in time and decided to tweak the programme to keep out the ‘pronouns’ suggestions off the smart compose. Now, the search engine giant seems to have made healthy progress in its other G suite services— Google Translate.
«Over the course of this year, there’s been an effort across Google to promote fairness and reduce bias in machine learning.
