Gender Inclusivity Fairness Index (GIFI): A Multilevel Framework for Evaluating Gender Diversity in Large Language Models

CDS 1646
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

About

We introduce a comprehensive framework for assessing gender fairness in large language models (LLMs), particularly in their treatment of both binary and non-binary genders. Existing research has largely focused on binary gender distinctions, neglecting the inclusivity of non-binary identities. To address this, the authors propose a novel metric that evaluates LLMs across seven dimensions. The study conducts extensive evaluations on 15 popular LLMs, revealing significant discrepancies in their ability to fairly represent diverse gender identities.
