CODED BIAS is the winner of the 2020 CIFF Best International Documentary Feature.
MIT researcher Joy Buolamwini makes a startling discovery - most facial recognition software does not read dark-skinned faces, or women, accurately. Thus begins a journey to uncover other types of bias in the machine learning algorithms that impact us all.
Director Shalini Kantayya illuminates the public's misconceptions about Artificial Intelligence (AI) by chronicling Buolamwini’s transformation from scientist to advocate as she pushes for federal legislation to govern this technology. CODED BIAS shines an important light on the impacts - present and future - of AI on civil rights, and democracy around the globe.
Rated PG: Infrequent coarse language
