"Coded Bias" Screening and Conversation with Shalini Kantayya and Naomi Klein
Join Rutgers Institute for Women's Leadership for a screening of the film Coded Bias and a conversation with filmmaker Shalini Kantayya and Naomi Klein, the Gloria Steinem Chair in Media, Culture and Feminist Studies at Rutgers University.
Coded Bias explores the fallout of MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini's startling discovery that facial recognition does not see dark-skinned faces and women 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. Coded Bias premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.
