Algorithms aren’t neutral. So can we trust them?
As more and more decisions are made for us by these complex pieces of code, @hey_alirae explores trust issues in a world run by algorithms.

Three topics were on our watch:
- Australia’s robo-debt scandal
- How inequality is being automated
- The COMPAS algorithm in the US
We discussed all of this with @Asher_Wolf & Virginia Eubanks (@PopTechWorks) and Sharad Goel (@5harad) aje.io/kgcm7

In 2016, Australia’s so-called ‘robo-debt scandal’ led to more than 400,000 people being told they had to pay money back to the country’s welfare system.
An algorithm was at the heart of this scandal.
We’ve explained it with some help from @Asher_Wolf: aje.io/kgcm7
