Listen in: Algorithms for the People

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are reshaping our world. Police forces use them to decide where to send police officers, judges to decide whom to release on bail, welfare agencies to decide which children are at risk of abuse, and Facebook and Google to rank content and distribute ads. In these spheres, and many others, powerful prediction tools are changing how decisions are made, narrowing opportunities for the exercise of judgment, empathy, and creativity. In?Algorithms for the People, Josh Simons flips the narrative about how we govern these technologies. Instead of examining the impact of technology on democracy, he explores how to put democracy at the heart of?AI?governance.

1 年Yeah, yeah... If everything already belongs to the people, then there shan't be any rage against the machine, but then there shan't be any tech-fetish too. You see, how beautiful this world is. Since how long have we, as humanity have been putting technology to nature. Anyone on the numbers inserted in the Podcast on AI?
