I further discuss approaches to address control and whether people want control, and move to people’s perceptions of contestable systems.</span></span></p><p class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><font class=""><strong class="">Bio: </strong></font><span class="">Karrie Karahalios is a University Scholar, Professor of Computer Science, a Co-director of the Center for People and Infrastructures and the Center for Just Infrastructures at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and a Senior Research Scientist at Adobe Research.
