Scientific paper, hit rate AI assigns gender
Hello, I am looking for a good scientific paper (or a book) that statistically analyzes the accuracy with which a trained neural network can assign gender based on brain scans. (I just look out of curiosity.) 2A02:908:424:9D60:5D08:2AD7:1469:49BF (talk) 11:20, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
 * AI and gender. Yep that sounds like it would be a winner on Twitter ;-) I think they'd be wishing themselves an interesting life! NadVolum (talk) 11:35, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Obviously the neural network would have to be trained to acknowledge the superiority of the female brain... MinorProphet (talk) 11:51, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
 * That may depend on the gender the AI self-assigns. -- Verbarson talkedits 12:13, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

I asked a trained neural network that insisted that these are real studies that have investigated the neural correlates of gender identity:

 * Most of them do correspond to something real though bits do seem to be changed or made up. I'm impressed, it's a good response to start working from. Kind of what you'd get from an expert who didn't have their notes with them. NadVolum (talk) 11:25, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
