Book Overview
The word "glitch" implies an incidental error, as easy to patch up as it is to identify. But what if racism, sexism, and ableism aren't just bugs in mostly functional machinery-they're coded into the system itself? In More than a Glitch, Meredith Broussard demonstrates how technological neutrality is a myth and why algorithms need to be held accountable. Meredith Broussard is Associate Professor at the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute of New York University and Research Director at the NYU Alliance for Public Interest Technology. She is the author of Artificial Unintelligence (MIT Press). Her work has been featured in the New Yorker, New York Times, Atlantic, Wired, Economist, the BBC, and more. She appears in the 2020 documentary Coded Bias and serves on the advisory board for the Center for Critical Race and Digital Studies.
