And what are the consequences for the people AI is biased against? When MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini discovers that most facial-recognition software does not accurately identify darker-skinned faces and the faces of women, she delves into an investigation of widespread bias in algorithms. As it turns out, artificial intelligence is not neutral, and women are leading the charge to ensure our civil rights are protected.Content will go live on September 15 at 7:30 pm EDT. Watch film. A recording of the film and Q&A will be rescreened on September 20 at 4:00 p.m. Oxford is one of the hosts of the 2020-21 Southern Circuit tour of independent films.
