Abstract

Abstract:

The unregulated use of artificial intelligence (AI) without public consent has raised ethical concerns, particularly affecting marginalized communities such as transgender individuals. This project, based on interviews with 34 transgender people, explores the impact of AI on historically marginalized minorities, emphasizing the urgent need for an ethical and legal framework. This research reveals instances of discrimination and challenges faced by transgender individuals at various stages, from border control to airport security, highlighting the limitations and biases of AI in recognizing diverse gender identities. Trans rights activists, and AI experts remark the importance of inclusivity in AI development and regulation.

Resumen:

El uso no regulado de la inteligencia artificial (IA) sin el consentimiento público ha suscitado preocupaciones éticas, afectando especialmente a comunidades marginadas como las personas transgénero. Este proyecto, basado en entrevistas con 34 personas trans, explora el impacto de la IA en minorías históricamente marginadas, enfatizando la necesidad urgente de un marco ético y legal. Esta investigación revela instancias de discriminación y desafíos enfrentados por personas trans en diversas etapas, desde el control fronterizo hasta la seguridad en aeropuertos, destacando las limitaciones y sesgos de la IA en el reconocimiento de identidades de género diversas. Activistas de los derechos trans, y expertos en AI subrayan la importancia de la inclusión en el desarrollo y la regulación de la IA.
