Dr. Sarah ShokerPostdoctoral Fellow and Founder, Glassbox Inc. She is the founder of Glassbox, a social impact firm that trains stakeholders in government and the tech sector to identify the social impact of AI systems. Her work is highly requested by government policymakers and garnered an invitation from Canada’s head of state, the Governor General Julie Payette, to participate in a delegation to Lithuania and Estonia. Dr. Shoker was invited into the Government of Canada’s Advisory Council on Artificial Intelligence as a member of the Public Awareness Working Group. Her past work also includes a commission by Global Affairs Canada to write a report on the gendered effects of digital information communication technologies (ICTs) in the context of international security. Her report will be used to help mainstream gender into the Government of Canada’s national cybersecurity policy. Dr. Shoker has been the keynote speaker at the Data Exploitation Conference hosted by Public Safety Canada, where she had the opportunity to speak about algorithmic fairness and ethics to FiveEyes partner agencies. And whether she is speaking on panels sponsored by the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots, to think tanks like the Centre for International Governance Innovation, or with United Nations member states, she always strives to use her research to bridge the gap between stakeholders who often have very different ideas about AI’s role in society. Most recently, Dr. Shoker’s book on gender, technology, and war was published in October 2020 by Palgrave MacMillan under the title Military-Age Males in U.S Counterinsurgency and Drone Warfare. You can follow her on Twitter @SarahShoker. | |
