Central to Davis' presentation was the revelation that her Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media has partnered with Walt Disney Studios to deploy a new digital tool that uses AI technology to assess film and television scripts for gender bias.
quote:
Named "GD-IQ: Spellcheck for Bias," the new tool leverages patented machine learning technology developed at the University of Southern California Viterbi School of Engineering to rapidly analyze the text of a script to determine its number of male and female characters and whether they are representative of the real population at large. The technology also can discern the numbers of characters who are people of color, LGBTQI, possess disabilities or belong to other groups typically underrepresented and failed by Hollywood storytelling.

I'm sure that's not biased at all.
AI is without a doubt going to have to go through a lot of this programmer bias.

The elite never scan themselves.
Gender bias enforcement is only for peons and underlings.

How are they going to justify any movie about a black theme?
Only 13% of the population.
This is dumb.

About damn time
Was watching Saving Private Ryan the other day and the lack of female roles was very triggering.

I miss the days where all we had to worry about were backwards masking and secret animated boners.
Do you think the algo would pick up, "frick this gay earth?"

Well that would kill the Mary Sues at Star Wars and Marvel if they really let the A I work. But not going to happen!

Just let AI write the scripts.

I think they started doing that a few years ago.

Charley Baltimore wouldn't need AI to protect her. She'd just kick arse and kill people.

Disney doesn’t make movies anymore, they make propaganda.

But, even better. Let's be honest, it's not even true. I can GUARNTEE you that they aren't looking to spot any bias against men.
