AI imagery study reveals gender bias in AI-generated visuals

A new interdisciplinary project titled "She Works, He Works" explores gender bias in AI-generated imagery by combining feminist visual theory, AI critique, and artistic practice. The project uses text-to-image models with carefully crafted prompts to reveal how societal biases are embedded in AI systems, often portraying women in roles emphasizing aesthetics and agility, while men are depicted with authority and professionalism. This work, grounded in feminist insights, positions AI as a cultural actor that can perpetuate stereotypes but also serve as a tool for critique and the envisioning of more equitable futures. AI

IMPACT Highlights the perpetuation of societal gender biases in AI image generation and calls for more inclusive development practices.
