This course explores the ethical implications of data analytics. It connects old ideas – privacy, surveillance, power, justice, accountability, corporate responsibility, stakeholder theory – with new technologies and cases, such as the use of machine learning to predict crime. The course will prepare you to evaluate strategic arguments about the ethics of data analytics and to relate data analytics to ethical concepts so that you approach newer, ambiguous capabilities of technology and artificial intelligence with a critical eye.

You will review two case studies, complete two practice quizzes, and view your instructor’s analyses of the two case studies.

Welcome to Week 3 of the course! When an AI program decides if you are employable, can it discriminate? This week you will examine different theories of discrimination and fairness in data analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.

Welcome to Week 4 of the course! One of the primary purposes of technology design is to solve problems. So take a moment to consider a few global issues or problems that you would like to see (re)solved. Do other people share your interest in these issues? What role could technology play in solving these problems? How could the outcomes achieved by a technological intervention (to solve these problems) be accurately measured? This week, you will delve into the heart of these issues by examining how technology can make mistakes and how we can think of holding people accountable for technology.
