Word Embeddings have been shown to contain the societal biases present in the original corpora. Existing methods to deal with this problem have been shown to only remove superficial biases. The method of Adversarial Debiasing was presumed to be similarly superficial, but this is was not verified in previous works. Using the experiments that demonstrated the shallow removal in other methods, I show results that suggest Adversarial Debiasing is more effective at removing bias and thus motivate further investigation on the utility of Adversarial Debiasing.
