Algorithms are biased. They don't mean to be, but they are a product of the people who created them. And we all have biases. But we can better understand these biases and make the world would be a much fairer place. So that is the problem Michelle Lee is trying to solve. In this podcast, Ben Moss and Orlando Machado, Chief Data Scientist at Aviva, are back at Cambridge University to find out more about Michelle's work.

    Heather and Aviva Drescher were castmates on RHONY and remain close to this day. Aviva was  a true New York City born and bred “Housewife” and she shares her life changing story at age 6, her work on Housewives, including infamous LegGate, and her work with Amputees and other charitable organizations.  This philanthropist, author, businesswoman, and full-time mother will let nothing hold her back. When Aviva was just six years old, she was in a tragic farm accident that resulted in the amputation of her left leg. Aviva has never let this tragedy define who she is. She has a law degree, and  she devotes her time to her investment banker husband, Reid, and raising their four children. Aviva teaches her family the importance of giving back by example through her philanthropic work. Aviva’s memoire, Leggy Blonde, came  out in  2014. ** Use Code:  INMYHEART for 25% OFF! http://www.revo.com   ** Use Code:  TREATYOURSELF20  for 20% OFF!  http://www.beyondfresh.com ** 10% OFF your first order! http://www.cloudwaterbrands.com Learn more about your ad choices.
