Abstract: We are living in a world that is continuously getting transformed by AI in more revolutionary ways than we can even imagine. Day by day, AI is becoming increasingly integrated into our daily lives. Applied in the economy, politics, healthcare, business, social media, entertainment, agriculture, and multiple industries, AI has brought about a groundbreaking change in the present world. However, in addition to its application in different sectors, it has also generated some complexities and discourses that need to be addressed with increasing insight. Living in the age of AI in the 21st century, we cannot think of a world free of gender bias, gender stereotypes, discrimination, and subordination. Hegel’s theory of Otherness posits that otherness is the unknown and opposite of oneself, or it may be defined as the outsider identified by certain signs such as race and gender. Thus, the concept of Otherness is closely associated with underrepresented, victimized, and objectified people in the social, cultural, technological, and political world. Philosopher Simon de Beauvoir modified and redefined the concept of the Other by setting its association with objectification and subordination in The Second Sex. In the recent world of AI, women are becoming victims as they are objectified, harassed, and robbed of their voices in many ways. This paper endeavors to examine the representation and situation of women as Other in diverse contexts in the age of AI from a feminist point of view.

Keywords: AI, Other, feminism, gender bias, stereotype, objectification.
