It was great watching @CodedBias with @Chich_Wu last night. It is essential that colleges initiate discussions about the ethical implications of big tech and the algorithms these large companies develop and use on the public. @jovialjoy @mathbabedotorg @silkiecarlo @zeynep

Too often we believe that data algorithms are unbiased. I highly recommend this phenomenal TED Talk by Joy Buolamwini to anyone interested in algorithmic bias. (Joy Buolamwini | TEDxBeaconStreet) https://t.co/UizP0bdhKJ via @TEDTalks
