Course description

Data ethics has become an increasingly important topic with the rise of big data and artificial intelligence. We will focus on three major ethic concerns raised by our lives online: privacy, manipulation, and bias. Readings will be drawn from a variety of authors, and writing assignments will apply ethical theories to practical problems.
