Abstract We came to synthetic data with a concern for disappearing edge cases. We have gotten muddled in Intersectional Hallucinations. Using sensitivities informed by intersectionality theory and machine learning techniques, we are developing a vocabulary and toolkit do identify and measure intersectional fidelities and hallucinations. This work triggers questions about the uses of synthetic structured data (when are hallucinations good? When are they a problem?) and guardrails to ensure its reliability.

With a background in Science & Technology Studies and medical humanities, she's looking at the nexus of ontologies, epistemologies and AI. What happens when the data that represents the world meets AI?
