Future of coding should also means more equity. I came accross a paper earlier mentionning that latest NLP algo intensify gender bias in Information Retrival system (source:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.00372.pdf).
Basically, the more performant is the algo the more it is able to infuse the bias of the training dataset.
When it comes to NLP to fight gender bias, there are some technics like
gender swapping,biais fine tuning or
learning gender-neutral embedding exist to mitigate the bias (futher reading -
