Documentary Screening: Coded Bias
Join Zahn Innovation Center and Black Studies Department at CCNY for a smart screening of the documentary film, "Coded Bias".
When MIT researcher, poet and computer scientist Joy Buolamwini uncovers racial and gender bias in AI systems sold by big tech companies, she embarks on a journey alongside pioneering women sounding the alarm about the dangers of unchecked artificial intelligence that impacts us all. Through Joy’s transformation from scientist to steadfast advocate and the stories of everyday people experiencing technical harms, Coded Bias sheds light on the threats A.I. poses to civil rights and democracy.

Doors open at 12:15pm for a light lunch. Screening is hosted between 12:25pm and 2pm; participants are able to participate in a discussion live with their smart devices.
