Major Research Paper
My research will examine the potential gender bias in automated job assessment of immigrant women in Canada. The research will delve into the discrepancies, conformity in the artificial Intelligent (AI) systems and how it impacts the already marginalized immigrant women in their job search. It’ll explore the relationship, interactions and intersections between gender and artificial intelligence to assess the impact of the technological trend of automation and how it might affect the procedure of acquiring the right job roles based purely on their skills.
