Coded Bias: An Insightful Look At AI, Algorithms And Their Risks To Society` Coded Bias is Netflix's deepest dive into the state of artificial intelligence, highlighting issues that are uncomfortably relevant to society. Commercially available facial recognition programs have a severe algorithmic bias against women and people of color, as seen in research by M.I.T. Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini. Flaws in AI applications can spread discrimination across daily life, affecting hiring, medical treatment, education, financial credit, and prison terms. The film shines a light on the opportunity to improve AI systems through better data leverage and development practices. To address algorithmic harm, innovation is needed, including tools for accountability, to enable marginalized populations to benefit from better technology and experience a better world.
