Coded Bias reveals the groundbreaking research of MIT researcher Joy Buolamwini, proving that facial recognition algorithms have the power to disseminate racial bias at scale. In June 2020, IBM, Amazon, and Microsoft said they would pause the sale of facial recognition to police. In a pivotal moment for racial equality, and a decisive moment for how big tech will yield power, Coded Bias is a trailblazing film for public understanding and engagement with the algorithms that impact us all.
“‘A chilling plunge into Orwellian reality.” “Wake-up call.” “Riveting.” “This fast-moving, dynamically assembled film — which makes sharp use of classic sci-fi visual concepts and screen graphics to echo its themes — is here to remind us that the struggle between humans and machines over decision-making is only going to get messier.” “Coded Biasargues persuasively that Big Data remains blindfolded about the discrimination embedded in our technology.” – David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
“The best of Sundance.” “Dismaying and engaging.” – Lisa Kennedy, The Denver Post
