Algorithmic unfairness, infrastructure & genealogies of data | Alex Hanna, Google | DISCOVERY
This AI and Health Discovery discusses the problems of algorithmic bias and datasets used in machine learning and AI systems. Join Alex Hanna, a researcher on the Ethical AI team at Google, to uncover deeper issues with data used in AI, including problematic categorizations and the extractive logics of crowd work and data mining. This talk will first focus on reframing data as a form of infrastructure, and as such, implicating politics and power in the construction of datasets. Secondly, it discusses the development of a research program around the genealogy of datasets used in machine learning and AI systems. It will present why these genealogies should be attentive to the constellation of organizations and stakeholders involved in their creation, including the intent, values, and assumptions of their authors and curators, and the adoption of datasets by subsequent researchers to ensure fairness in automated decision-making systems.

What is AI for Good?
The AI for Good series is the leading action-oriented, global & inclusive United Nations platform on AI. The Summit is organized all year, always online, in Geneva by the ITU with XPRIZE Foundation in partnership with over 35 sister United Nations agencies, Switzerland and ACM. The goal is to identify practical applications of AI and scale those solutions for global impact.
