MLK Celebration Week: "Coded Bias" Film Screening and Q&A Discussion with Filmmaker

CODED BIAS explores the fallout of MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini’s discovery that facial recognition does not see dark-skinned faces accurately, and her journey to push for the first-ever legislation in the U.S. to govern against bias in the algorithms that impact us all.  

The event includes a post-screening virtual Q&A with documentary filmmaker Shalini Kantayya in Pfendler Hall and via Zoom.

***Virtual participants can view the film on their own before, during or after a link using a code that will be sent after registration for the event.
