New study by Aquino et al. provides a fabulous look at differing opinions about algorithmic bias held by healthcare professionals. 72 experts had 3 key disagreements: whether bias exists (most say yes, some no), who's responsible for fixing it & whether to include race/ethnicity data in AI systems 🧪

New study by @janadreston.bsky.social @anneo.bsky.social & @germanneubaum.bsky.social reveals how users understand algorithms. Key findings: 71% have a basic understanding of algorithms but only 33% can explain how they work; users see themselves as passive actors when interacting with algorithms 🧪

Super interesting paper by @overbye.bsky.social about perceptions of algorithm bias.
Excited to share my new paper with @garciaerick.bsky.social Xinyi Zhang & @laurentwang.bsky.social.

We ask: Do people see algorithmic bias as a risk—and do they feel capable of addressing it? Answer... It depends! More below 👇🧪 #commsky
