Abstraction: Interdisciplinary conference on fairness accountability transparency in algorithmic systems
Key points:
- ACM FAccT (Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency) brings together CS, law, social science, and humanities researchers
- Focus: algorithmic systems that filter, score, recommend, and make decisions affecting credit, healthcare, parole, immigration
- Key risks addressed: entrenching biases, reducing accountability, hindering due process, and information asymmetry between individuals and large institutions
- Specifically examines whether automated decisions should be delegated to data-driven systems at all, not just how to make them fairer
- Grounds research in existing legal requirements and evaluates technical solutions against economic and power distribution implications
