100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics – Elvira Perez

Women make up nearly 50% of the global workforce, however only account for a third of the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) workforce. This lack of diversity perpetuates gender stereotypes and shows up as bias in AI systems. Launched in 2018, Women in AI Ethics has elevated the voices  of experts from multidisciplinary backgrounds and showcased the role of diverse perspectives in responsible design and development of AI models and systems.  Each year they publish ‘100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics’ and we are delighted to see Horizon Academic, Elvira Perez, Professor of Digital Technology for Mental Health and Digital Technologies, named  as one of the 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics in 2025!
