On April 14th, Our Erie podcast partnered with the Film Grain podcast to host a virtual talkback with Shalini Kantayya, Director of Coded Bias. When MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini discovered that most facial-recognition software misidentifies womxn and darker-skinned faces, she decided to take a deeper dive into how technology is reinforcing racial biases. Tune in as the panel of community members join the hosts and special guest in sharing their responses.
You can watch Coded Bias on Netflix.
