Despite advancements in technology and policy, bias remains deeply embedded in many aspects of society, from AI algorithms and hiring practices to urban planning and healthcare accessibility. These biases disproportionately impact marginalized communities, limiting opportunities and reinforcing systemic inequities.
At Hack the Bias: Innovate for Inclusion, we challenge participants to develop solutions that promote fairness, sustainability, and accessibility for all. How can we leverage technology—AI, data science, XR, or other innovations—to mitigate bias in decision-making, ensure equitable resource distribution, and create inclusive experiences?
Whether it's addressing algorithmic bias, improving access to essential services, or designing more inclusive digital and physical environments, your solution should contribute to a world where everyone has equal opportunities to thrive.
You must be a first year student in your first undergrad or a high schooler. You must have signed in in-person and recieved a nametag on Saturday.
To get started, make a DevPost account and join the hackathon if you haven't already. All team members must join the DevPost and be included in the final submission. Make sure to join our discord for live updates!
