### Conformal Prediction: A Game-Changer for Fair AI Recommendations
Recommender systems shape what we watch, read, and even who gets hired. But **bias in LLMs** can lead to unfair recommendations. How do we fix this?
A new paper, **[FACTER: Fairness-Aware Conformal Thresholding and Prompt Engineering](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2502.02966)**, shows how **Conformal Prediction** can make AI-driven recommendations **fairer and more reliable.**
### **How It Works:**
**Conformal Prediction** quantifies uncertainty, ensuring fair recommendations.
**Thresholding Mechanisms** adjust confidence levels to **minimize bias** while maintaining accuracy.
**Prompt Engineering** enhances response diversity, **reducing systemic bias** in outputs.
### **Why This Matters:**
**Fairer AI decisions** across different user groups.
**Regulatory compliance** with fairness guidelines.
**Scalable solutions** for real-world recommender systems.
With **Conformal Prediction**, fairness isn’t just an afterthought—it’s **built into** AI-driven recommendations.
