DIMT reports on an international conference held in Italy focusing on the intersections of artificial intelligence, women’s rights, and law. The event explored how AI technologies can both challenge and advance gender equality in the legal sector. Discussions highlighted the risks of algorithmic bias that could perpetuate gender discrimination, emphasizing the need for transparent and accountable AI systems. Legal experts called for comprehensive regulations to prevent gender bias in AI and to ensure equitable outcomes.

The conference also addressed the representation of women in AI development and legal frameworks, advocating for policies that promote diversity and inclusion in AI governance. The evolving legal challenges of AI's impact on privacy, labor rights, and discrimination were central themes. As AI continues to shape the digital landscape, integrating gender-sensitive approaches into AI regulation is seen as essential to promoting fairness and justice.
