Pew Research @pewresearch deleted the previous tweet with the reference to 'gender' but the article itself is still using 'gender'. The machine was clearly taught to distinguish between man and woman (therefore sex). Gender is not binary.https://twitter.com/pewresearch/status/1169630014041665543 …
But it begs the question - why seek to train the machines to identify gender in the first place. Why not just identify sex? I mean given that we know that gender identity is internal, subjective & invisible, why would they even start there? Its not like sex is wholly unimportant!pic.twitter.com/feXgCgsnTM

I think they are simply confused about the terminology re: sex / gender.
