Motivation / Abstract

Many companies are looking to deploy AI systems across their operations. AI can help identify and reduce the impact of human biases, but it can also make the problem worse by deploying biases at scale. The first part of this presentation covers the different types of bias and the definition of fairness in the algorithm. The second part reviews the paper “Model Cards for Model Reporting” by Margaret Mitchelle and Simone Wu, et al (2018).
