Terrific panel @esil_sedi in Vilnius, Lithuania and wonderful to hear again from Benedict Kingsbury so many years after @nyulaw. A thought-provoking paper on the inadequacies of the categories of technology and data to regulate AI & a call to adopt the framework of infrastructure

Will voting in a female president bring hope to Mexican women where roughly ten women are killed every day? Mexico the next one to watch on the list of countries who have had women leaders. What will be her #legislativefootprint? #womenpresident.

Claudia Sheinbaum faced Xochitl Galvez on Sunday in a historic election. She is likely to become the country’s first female president.

Interested in the gendered harms of artificial intelligence for women and gender diverse people. And law's role in minimising (or eradicating!) such harm. My latest research is out now in the Notre Dame Journal of Emerging Technologies @UTSLaw @UTSIntLaw.

From pornographic deepfakes to harassment of female-voiced chatbots, my views in @JMIPublicPolicy's The Policymaker on how governments can regulate Artificial Intelligence to minimise harms to women and gender diverse groups.@UTSLaw.
thepolicymaker.appi.org.au
Australia has joined the race to regulate AI – but we aren’t paying enough attention to the gender-related challenges generated by these systems. Here’s how we can start to fix that.

And here’s my take in @LowyInstitute's The Interpreter on how this gov can make Australia a leader again on gender-responsive budgeting: table a federal bill to embed GRB in law, learn from Vic's and Qld's experiences & upskill ministries to deliver.
Arrived in Seattle for APEC on the invitation of Aus Department of Prime Minister & Cabinet. Presenting tomorrow on links between gender-responsive law & gender budgeting. Kick-started with a great ADB keynote on need for gender-responsive climate change policies! @UTSIntLaw

"Gender inequality comes from an imbalance of power between men and women. We can’t achieve equality if we’re afraid to acknowledge that this power even exists." A very good read on why Australia should be explicit about a feminist foreign policy
lowyinstitute.org
The problem with an implied rather than explicit feminist approach is that it is all too easy to ignore.
