Book Launch
Cathy O’Neil will present her book “Weapons of Math Destruction” at the Matrix in Barrows Hall. In her book, Cathy O’Neil exposes the black box models that shape our future, both as individuals and as a society. O’Neil calls on modelers to take more responsibility for their algorithms and on policy makers that regulate their use. But in the end, it’s up to us to become more savvy about the models that govern our lives.
It should be a very fun event so don’t miss out! Light refreshments will be provided. Books will be available to purchase and be signed. See more information here.
