Details: In 2020, the documentary Coded Bias explained MIT media researcher Joy Buolamwini's discovery of racial bias in facial recognition algorithms and revealed numerous ways artificial intelligence embeds bias into our day-to-day lives! Join the Auburn University College of Sciences and Mathematics Department of Mathematics and Statistics for a two-day event where we will explore the fall-out of the film and examine where we are now.
On March 16 @ 6:00 pm, join a virtual discussion of the documentary Coded Bias via Zoom: Coded Bias: Humanity vs Machine Virtual Discussion. The film is available online (see, for example, Netflix). Please contact us if you need assistance in locating a copy of the film.
On March 17 @ 5:30 pm, join us in the Science Center Auditorium for the Humanity vs Machines Panel Discussion with experts in the field: Dr. Christopher Harris (Auburn University), Dr. Jesmin Khan (Tuskegee University), and Dr. Candice Lanius (University of Alabama Huntsville). Register to attend here: Coded Bias- Humanity vs Machine Panel Discussion
If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Melinda Lanius (melinda.lanius@auburn.edu).
