Advances in Fairness and Ethics in AI

The past year has seen significant progress in the conversation around fairness and ethics in AI. Discussions have shifted towards evaluating the impact of technical approaches on fairness and ethics, rather than merely applying band-aid solutions. Notable papers like 'Delayed Impacts of Fairness' and 'Lipstick on a Pig' highlight the limitations of current debiasing methods. There is a growing emphasis on the socio-technical nature of addressing fairness challenges, with a focus on systemic issues and the intersectionality of factors affecting bias.
