Gibbons Lecture Series - Big data: Transparency and reliability

The second 2020 Gibbons Lecture will be live-streamed only on 7 October 2020 at 6pm, due to alert level restrictions.

It will also be available later as a podcast.

 

There is near consensus in the emerging field of data ethics that processes and systems must be transparent and explainable to a wide range of stakeholders. 

In this talk, Professor Tim Dare from the Faculty of Arts at the University of Auckland will discuss why transparency and explainability have become central to data ethics and the reasons there are to question that centrality. Professor Dare will also discuss why we should be more concerned with reliability and with how automated systems compare, ethically, and with alternative ways of doing the tasks which might be done by automated systems.
