Organized by the Center for Global Policy Solutions, this three-day summit will address pathways to greater economic opportunity through the lens of “Technology, Inclusion, and Social Change.”  Approximately 300 policymakers, journalists, advocates, and experts at the intersection of government, technology, economics, education, health, and human and civil rights will discuss and advance solutions to today’s biggest societal changes. Sessions will explore the impact of the latest technological advancements in big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. It will also feature the “Inclusion Revolution Innovation Competition” that will award a $10,000 prize to innovators who develop products, services, programs, or policies that help make the application of technology, big data, and/or the operation of the tech sector more inclusive and economically and socially beneficial to marginalized communities.

Abstract:
Explanation has long been deemed a crucial aspect of accountability.  By requiring that powerful actors explain the bases of their decisions — the logic goes — we reduce the risks of error, abuse, and arbitrariness, thus producing more socially desirable decisions.  Decisionmaking processes employing machine learning algorithms and similar data-driven approaches complicate this equation.  Such approaches promise to refine and improve the accuracy and efficiency of decisionmaking processes, but the logic and rationale behind each decision remains opaque to human understanding.  The conference will grapple with the question of when and to what extent decisionmakers should be legally or ethically obligated to provide humanly meaningful explanations of individual decisions to those who are affected or to society at large.

bout Privacy Lab:

Privacy Lab is a meetup for privacy minded people to foster communication and collaboration. This event focusing on the Future of Privacy and Artificial Intelligence (AI) features Peter Eckersley as its speaker.

About The Speaker:

Peter Eckersley

Peter is Chief Computer Scientist for the Electronic Frontier Foundation. He leads a team of technologists who watch for technologies that, by accident or design, pose a risk to computer users’ freedoms—and then look for ways to fix them. They write code to make the Internet more secure, more open, and safer against surveillance and censorship. They explain gadgets to lawyers and policymakers, and law and policy to gadgets.

Peter will discuss the new EFF initiative that he is leading on the policy, strategy and governance questions raised by artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies.

About The Venue Host:

Bonsai makes AI for everyone and is helping everyone become producers of AI. It is on a mission to make intelligence a core component of every hardware and software application. Big thanks to Team Bonsai, including but not limited to Keen Browne, Darius Garza, and Bridget Hickey, for hosting us!
