Empire & Legacy

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... but what if the beholder is a biased algorithm? 😳

TikTok and Instagram algorithms often view beauty through a Eurocentric lens, amplifying one standard while sidelining others. It's a problem few talk about — and we're diving right into it.

In Season 3, Episode 4 of the Legacy and Empire Podcast (dropping Sept 22, 2025), we ask: AI Beauty Standards: Are We Training Machines to Be Eurocentric? 🎙️ Afro-beauty and AI fairness advocates square off against social media algorithms in this eye-opening discussion.

🚨 Why listen? If you care about business, tech or culture, this conversation will change how you see the digital world. Learn how algorithms amplify Eurocentric beauty norms while marginalising Black features — and what we can do to change that. This isn't just a tech issue; it's a leadership wake-up call. Future CEOs, pay attention: understanding algorithmic bias is now part of the CEO mindset for truly inclusive leadership. 💼🌍
