We look at China, and China's surveillance and scoring system, and a lot of people say, 'well, thank goodness we don't live there.' In reality, we're all being scored, all the time, including here in the United States. We are all grappling, every day, with algorithmic determinism. Somebody's algorithm somewhere has assigned you a score, and as a result, you are paying more or less money for toilet paper when you shop online, you are being shown better or worse mortgages, you are more or less likely to be profiled as a criminal in somebody's database somewhere. We are all being scored. The key difference between the United States and in China is that China is transparent about it.

A new documentary looks at the dangers of artificial intelligence and its increasing omnipresence in daily life, as new research shows that it often reflects racist biases.

The film “Coded Bias” begins with Joy Buolamwini, a researcher at the MIT Media Lab, discovering that most facial recognition software does not recognize darker-skinned or female faces. She goes on to uncover that artificial intelligence is not in fact a neutral scientific tool; instead, it internalizes and echoes the inequalities of wider society.
