Listen to this episode with one of these apps:

With increasing awareness around diversity, equity and inclusion, there’s a greater need to improve conversations on difficult topics.


Eri O’Diah joins the show to talk about how her involvement with the Superbowl in Minnesota led to her creation of the “Grammarly of bias”. She shares how her company, SIID Technologies, is harnessing the intuitive power of machine learning to build tools that facilitate better understanding of all groups and how privacy and health concerns correlate with training an effective model.


In this episode, you will learn:



  • How a lack of diverse perspectives impacts algorithms

  • How AI can be used to evaluate, uncover, and correct the influence of human biases in communication

  • How sometimes the best solutions are ones founders create for themselves

  • The monetary cost of bias

  • Why there’s fear in addressing bias

  • The mental health components of training algorithms
