  • Submitting a discussion post

Read the article The Age of the Algorithm by Delaney Hall Links to an external site., then post your answer to one or more of the following questions, or your own thoughtful response to the article.  Note that after you post your answer you will be able to see your classmates' responses.

  • Is it important to ensure algorithms are fair?  If so, whose responsibility is it?  If not, why not?
  • How are algorithms important in our everyday lives?
  • What does the author mean by the phrase "the weaponization of algorithms"?

I expect high levels of professionalism in discussions. If you see an inappropriate post, please report it to Ms. O'Malley immediately.
