Algorithms touch every aspect of our lives, from the movies we're recommended on Netflix to our ability to secure a loan for our first home. When the decisions made by these algorithms are harmful, what can we do about it? More importantly, what should we do about it? Today, we speak with Alex Engler from the Brookings Institute and Georgetown University about unruly algorithms, the role of public institutions in reining them in, and what needs to be done to actually do it. Alex's recent Lawfare article, "The Devil is in the Data," is accessible here: https://www.lawfareblog.com/devil-data. This episode was recorded in early December 2020.
