I want to get into computer vision and image processing, but I don't want to produce anything racist. How can I safeguard my stack against accidental microaggressions?

You won't succeed. The second you give it a picture of a tranny, it's going to have an even harder time figuring out which gender to say than you would.

Easy, just don't develop software that has any modern features. Keep it antiquated and shitty enough that normies will keep away from it. Pic unrelated.

That's if you binarize gender.

There's an MIT article about "debiasing" word2vec results by using supervised input given through Mechanical Turk : https://www.technologyreview.com/s/602025/how-vector-space-mathematics-reveals-the-hidden-sexism-in-language/

This applies to words but it could be adapted for images I guess.

Anyway, if you want to actively avoid your algorithm to be racist/sexist it's possible.

A tranny does not look like a wolf-kin to a computer it look like a hairy faggot who doesn't shower. long story short there are 2 genders and even your computer knows this.

You're an alt-right fag coming on a technology board trying to start a flame war by pretending to be one of those 'sjws.' You gave yourself away by calling it "social justice" eve they don't call themselves that you dumbass. Alt-right retards are just as bad as the sjws. Go back.

This subreddit is fucking dying.
Is hackernews the only place left to actually talk about technology anymore?

You won't succeed at all. It's really hard to trust me. One time, I uploaded a pic and got tagged as a Gorilla. It was funny, but still, you won't succeed.

Fuck off, some of us like to discuss technology here.

>>56606213
Confirmed for being a /pol/ moron pretending to be a sjw to start a flame war on a technology board. They're using this tactic now that they've realized being outright racist on other boards will get them banned. The only way to defeat this nonsense is show contempt for both the Shillary sjws and the Trumpcuck /pol/suckers.

Adding a few more classes for gender would solve the problem in practice and in theory a continuous space of dimension 1 instead of {0,1} would do the trick. That's the exact meaning of "gender is a spectrum".
>>
>>56605650
what's censored there? the word racist?

first off if so why the fuck is it censored
secondly if so then HE'S the one who's bringing up black people looking like gorillas, nobody else started that conversation.

You can't program against racism and sexism. Racism and sexism are systematic and part of programing language. So instead just program your application to be racist and sexist against white men. Now we know in the real world you can't actually be racist or sexist against white men but your computer will not understand that so it will focus its microaggressions against white men and everything will be okay.

This succeeded with nets trained on anime

>>56606292
It wouldn't, though. As long as it tries to deduce the number from a picture (physical appearance), no matter how many genders you implement, your non-binary friends probably won't be happy. You'd have to remove gender entirely. Continue removing features until everyone's happy and the software can't identify things properly anymore. Remove all could-be offensive words. That's the only way to do it.

>technology is racist
Fuck off back to /r/eddit.

Tell everyone offended to grow some balls.
