Understanding Bias in Artificial Intelligence

April 17, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Join us for a discussion to uncover the surprising biases that exist in the design of AI — and the far-reaching repercussions on society. Algorithms make important decisions that affect our daily lives – but the myriad issues with how they are made and who is making them can create harmful outputs.

Our panelists represent voices across the world of tech leadership, government, academia, and the Seattle tech-building community.
