Algorithms provide the potential to make consistent and scalable decisions, but they also introduce a number of new challenges. Researchers and domain experts have raised concerns over issues including fairness, accountability, and transparency, which has led to a fast-growing field of research in these subjects.</span></div><span style="font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class="">In this talk, I'll discuss my efforts to develop principles for the responsible development and deployment of algorithmic decision-making systems. I'll provide an overview of the types of societal impacts and values implicated when algorithms are used to make consequential decisions. Situating these issues in contexts like criminal justice and employment, I'll explore how technical tools can help us better understand normative goals like fairness, counteract human biases in decision-making, and reason about the legal and policy implications of AI systems.</span></div><div class=""><span style="font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class=""></span><div class=""><font class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 15px;"><div class="" style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><div class=""><font class=""><b class="" style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">Bio: </b></font>Manish is a final-year PhD candidate in the Computer Science department at Cornell University, where he is advised by Jon Kleinberg.
