Join Cornell Tech and The Cornell Club-New York for a panel discussion on how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can reinforce social inequities—and how we can implement ethical, technical, and policy solutions to mitigate bias and promote fairness in the Era of AI.

The panel, hosted by Omari Keeles, Senior Director for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging at Cornell Tech, will feature academics and practitioners working to develop inclusive technologies and policies. The discussion will conclude with a Q&A session and networking reception.
