WHY IT MATTERS
Automated decision-making has the unprecedented power to disseminate bias at scale. As humans increasingly outsource our autonomy to machines, algorithms are already being deployed to decide what information we see, who gets hired, who gets health care, and who gets undue police scrutiny. As artificial intelligence moves out of the data science labs and into the real world, bias has the potential to be deployed at scale. There’s a real danger that without proper training on data evaluation and spotting the potential for bias in data, vulnerable groups in society could be harmed or have their rights impinged. A.I. also has intersectional implications on criminal & racial justice, immigration, healthcare, gender equity and current social movements.
MAKING AN IMPACT
We are working with a coalition of organizations, academics and activists to advance a national dialogue on artificial intelligence including facial recognition technology to organize communities to take action on algorithms that impact civil liberties and democracy. Online social screenings, educational materials and more will launch Fall of 2020. If you’d like to request a screening for your community, classroom, company, festival or conference, please complete the form.
