A draft syllabus is now posted: Syllabus. This will give more of an idea what is planned for the class, but is incomplete and likely to change before the class starts.
The Discussion forum is now open!
The semester hasn’t started, students in this class will be interested in this seminar on Monday at 4pm: Timnit Gebru: Computer Vision - Who is helped and who is harmed? Dr. Gebru has been much in the news recently, and I expect this talk will be relevant to topics we’ll discuss in the first few weeks of the class.
I will post more details on the reading/viewing list soon, but if you’d like to get an early start, one of the first major readings we will do is Ruha Benjamin’s book, Race After Technology.
