acmateescu's bookmarks 2016-09-06
Summary:
As the nation increases its focus on improving the criminal justice system and technology becomes more accessible, the possibilities and risks of emerging technologies in the justice field have proliferated. Are new technologies able to improve justice or are they merely adding a digital veneer to systemic problems? Join us and an interdisciplinary group of nationally recognized thought leaders to discuss such questions as:
· How is technology affecting people in the criminal justice system? · Are algorithms improving policing or digitizing racial bias? · How should we measure success and hold new technologies accountable? · Can social media be used to better understand juvenile violence?
