Abstract/Description
Recently the hidden inner workings of internet giants like Facebook, Twitter, Google, and Amazon have been exposed to scrutiny, by academics, the press, the public, and now legislators. Northeastern researchers have found clever ways to expose the major problems and biases that are encoded into these systems, and are starting to think about how their algorithms could be altered to be fairer and more transparent. Joining us on the first episode of What's New season three is Christo Wilson, an Associate Professor in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern and part of Northeastern University's Cybersecurity and Privacy Institute.
