Baratunde knows what is healthy to eat or not, thanks to the required nutrition labels on our food. But how do we know the ingredients in the algorithms and AI we depend on are safe to use? Baratunde speaks with Kasia Chmielinksi about the Data Nutrition Project, which helps data scientists, developers, and product managers assess the viability, health, and quality of the data that feeds their algorithms and influences our decisions daily. Guest: Kasia ChmielinskiBio: Co-Founder of the Data Nutrition Project, an affiliate at Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society, senior research advisor at the Partnership on AIOnline: The Data Nutrition Project website; Kasia on Twitter @kaschmShow Notes + LinksGo to howtocitizen.com to sign up for show news, AND (coming soon!) to start your How to Citizen Practice.Please show your support for the show in the form of a review and rating.

How do we want to raise our machines to be considerate, fair, and to build a better world than the one we are in today? - BECOME INFORMEDWatch: Coded BiasListen: Radical AI PodcastRead: Race after Technology, Weapons of Math Destruction, Data FeminismMake Choices: *privacy not included (consumer guide for buying technologies) - PUBLICLY PARTICIPATEDonate to these groups on the front lines ensuring the future of AI is human and just: Algorithmic Justice League, ACLU, Electronic Frontier FoundationDiscuss: Host a book club!
