Data science models are all around you.
They could impact your admission to a school, whether you get hired (or fired), your work schedule, whom you date, whether you get a loan, what ads are shown to you, what social media posts you see, and so on.
In this video, Kylie Ying talks to us about ethics in Data Science. She talks us through what exactly makes something 'ethical', and applies that to some great cases from Facebook, OKCupid and others. We will also cover ethics around data collection, data manipulation and ownership of the data around you, as well as ethics surrounding algorithms. Some topics discussed include informed consent, privacy, and FAT* (Fairness, Accountability, Transparency).
