Speakers urge audits, inclusive models and careful prompting to reduce AI bias

Gadeau presented a set of practical mitigation techniques for users and organizations. He recommended inclusive LLMs that incorporate culturally fluent sources (he cited Latimer), building or running models locally for privacy and domain control (NotebookLM was mentioned), and prompt engineering such as specifying diverse groups in image prompts. He emphasized feedback loops: using thumbs‑up or thumbs‑down signals and explaining why to help models learn.

He also presented four FLCC guidelines for everyday users: co‑create (treat AI as a partner), don't let AI be the sole arbiter of truth, avoid entering personal identifying information into AI prompts, and remain attentive to hidden biases. "Don't put personal information in an AI," he said, summarizing the privacy advice.
