“The Assembly welcomes Recommendation CM/Rec(2026)1 of the Committee of Ministers to member States on equality and artificial intelligence, and it acknowledges the risks posed to equality and non-discrimination by artificial intelligence (AI) systems. In particular, such systems can reproduce, perpetuate and exacerbate existing gender stereotypes. The Assembly also recognises that the under-representation of women as well as individuals and groups at risk of discrimination in the AI sector — particularly in decision-making roles, and in the design and development of AI systems — further exacerbates these risks. The Assembly is also aware of the distinct challenges that AI systems may present due to their complexity, large-scale impact, and limited transparency.”
