Technology is not gender-neutral. The internet is not gender-neutral. In the digital world, we see the negative stereotypes in our society augmented in both access and experience. It's time to start making our digital products feminist. - @westerbergae https://t.co/giGpyhYFhS

Why are all AI assistants female? And why are they ok with being sexually harassed by their users? I rather not have Silicon Valley's gender bias in my living room. @swordstoyoung on desiging feminist chatbots at #TEDxLondonWomen #ShowingUp
