Should Algorithms Decide Our Future? | Dr. Ryan Copus

from Radius of Reason

Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the world as we know it, including the American justice system. With the advent of advanced algorithms to enhance predictive decision-making for police work and parole hearings, there is a growing debate between factions seeking new efficiencies for these systems and those concerned that human bias will produce machines that will continuously violate civil liberties. Legal scholar Dr. Ryan Copus – who focuses his work on the application of AI to the justice system – joins Radius of Reason to discuss the role of AI in the legal system, whether or not AI can be biased, and if a robot will be sending you to prison sometime soon. GUEST INFO: Dr. Ryan Copus https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Ryan-Copus-2113493761 KEY TOPICS: Algorithmic bias, AI bias, racism, metacrisis, criminal justice system, machine learning algorithms applied to criminal justice, racist AI, woke AI.
