Diversity in AI Program
Innovation within the field of artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way the world works, communicates, cares and understands. However, there is a considerable bias and gender disparity within its ecosystem of opportunity.
That’s why IntelliHQ’s Diversity in AI program strives to extend opportunities to women, non-binary people, transfolk and people of colour to become leaders in the industry and set the groundwork for an equitable, illustrious future for AI.
With initial funding by the Australian Government’s Women in STEM and Entrepreneurship (WISE) program, the Diversity in AI program brings together Australia’s brightest underrepresented innovators to form a community of today and tomorrow’s AI leaders.
Less than 26%
of AI innovators are identified as women, non-binary or transgender.
Less than 5%
of AI innovators are women, non-binary or transgender people of colour.
