# Data Ethics Club meeting [05-10-22, 1pm UK time][timedate] ## Meeting info ### Quick links [Zoom link][zoom] Link to content: [The Failures of Algorithmic Fairness][content] ### Description You're welcome to join us for our next Data Ethics Club meeting on [5th October, 1pm UK time][timedate]. You don't need to register, just pop in. This time we're going to watch/read [The Failures of Algorithmic Fairness][content] by Paul Lee, which is a blog about the complications of trying to achieve fairness in algorithmic systems. Thank you to Paul Lee who wrote this blog post! ### Discussion points There will be time to talk about whatever we like, relating to the paper, but here are some specific questions to think about while you're reading. - What do you think we lose or gain from trying to make our lives more and more efficient? - What different ways could we measure 'fairness'? - Is there an acceptable level of fairness we could require before releasing new technologies? How would this work in practice? --- [timedate]: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Data+Ethics+Club%3A+Failures+of+Algorithmic+Fairness&iso=20221005T13&p1=299&ah=1 [content]: https://senseoffairness.blog/2020/12/17/the-failures-of-algorithmic-fairness/ [zoom]: https://bristol-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/94475153265
