AI for Good
Using AI to tackle society’s biggest challenges.

As an industry leader, we are committed to the responsible use of AI. Here’s how we’re using AI applications to protect privacy and combat unconscious bias.

Uncovering Unconscious Bias

Unconscious bias is easy to miss and much more pervasive in the workplace than blatant discrimination. It contributes to lower wages, fewer opportunities for advancement, and high turnover.

As part of our mission to use AI for good, we invested months of research and development and worked with leading ethicists and business leaders to build a solution to efficiently and accurately detect unconscious bias. The result: our Unconscious Bias Detector.

How the Unconscious Bias Detector Works

Analyzing employee demographic information and performance reviews with Text’s IQ’s socio-linguistic hypergraph technology can help you understand context and reveal patterns of potential bias.

High-level snapshot

The easy-to-read report dashboard provides a clear view of what appears in the performance reviews. This includes a diversity breakdown, a phrasing analysis, and a manager comment sentiment audit with positivity scores.

Analysis drill-down

This granular view shows commonly used phrases across the organization and a reviewer-centric report.

Objective approach

Using sophisticated AI to detect potential occurrences of unconscious bias, your team is empowered to take action.

Protecting Privacy with AI

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is a critical tool to ensure public information remains public, an important aspect of democracy. And it has been imperative for journalists reporting in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, it’s easy for personal information to be released in requested documents, either due to oversight or it not being covered under privacy laws. While it may not be illegal to publish these documents, it is unethical, and responsible journalists are working to avoid trampling individual privacy rights while upholding rights to public information.

How the AI to Protect Privacy tool works:

Input

Millions of documents and unstructured data, like declassified government files and emails, are uploaded into the AI to Protect Privacy dashboard.

Ai to Protect Privacy | Analyze & redact icon

Analyze & Redact

The AI analyzes the data, using context and NLP to identify what information is sensitive. It then automatically redacts it and returns the redacted documents.

Once all sensitive information has been redacted, the documents can be published without infringing individual citizen’s rights to privacy.
