KeepA(n)I: Social Stereotypes in and Social Norms for Computer Vision

Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The KeepA(n)I platform facilitates the auditing of computer vision systems that tag images, which aid visual communication on the Web and social media, from content moderation to the development of new apps and tools. In particular, KeepA(n)I enables a broad set of stakeholders to scrutinize a process of interest that embeds an image tagger for issues of social stereotyping, while also examining the social norms that humans apply to the observed AI behaviors. KeepA(n)I’s approach, and its use of the power of the crowd, can aid the stakeholders in receiving responses to both descriptive and normative questions (i.e., which stereotyping behaviors are observed and if they are considered problematic by a given “crowd” for an intended context). We provide an overview of the platform, its key features, and a discussion via a use case on the diverse set of stakeholders that can benefit from it.
