This is Roger Taylor, chair of Ofqual and also the Centre for Data Ethics & Innovation. I wonder if he’s still keen to hear from people who have been affected by ‘Bias in Algorithmic Decision Making’?? Does anyone know of any?
Don’t worry, though. The clue is in the name @RTaylorOpenData as a vocal proponent of open data & transparency must publish the algorithm & all decision-making behind it. Right, Roger? https://discoversociety.org/2016/11/01/focus-transparency-and-the-open-society/
