With recidivism algorithms, for example, I worry about racist outcomes. With personality tests [for hiring], I worry about filtering out people with… — Cathy O'Neil Copy Share Image
Google has - at least at this point - maintained the line where it keeps organic results separate from the advertisements. But… — Tim Wu Copy Share Image
The classes of problems which are respectively known and not known to have good algorithms are of great theoretical interest. [...] I… — Jack Edmonds Copy Share Image
No one knows what the right algorithm is, but it gives us hope that if we can discover some crude approximation of… — Andrew Ng Copy Share Image
“Data Scientists should recall innovation often times is not providing fancy algorithms, but rather value to the customer.” — Damian Mingle Copy Share Image
I don't think anybody's ever notified that they were sentenced to an extra two years because their recidivism score had been high,… — Cathy O'Neil Copy Share Image
Object-oriented programming aficionados think that everything is an object.... this [isn't] so. There are things that are objects. Things that have state… — Alexander Stepanov Copy Share Image
[The Euclidean algorithm is] the granddaddy of all algorithms, because it is the oldest nontrivial algorithm that has survived to the present… — Donald Knuth Copy Share Image
Bitcoin is not “unregulated”. It is regulated by algorithm instead of being regulated by government bureaucracies. Un-corrupted. — Andreas Antonopoulos Copy Share Image
It took me 1057 pages to describe the hundreds of mathematical equations, algorithms and programming techniques that I invented and used. — Philip Emeagwali Copy Share Image
“We will start by sketching the recursive algorithm and then add details to get to a full description of the algorithm. Footnote… — Sariel Har-Peled Copy Share Image
The emphasis on mathematical methods seems to be shifted more towards combinatorics and set theory - and away from the algorithm of… — John von Neumann Copy Share Image
Enchanting is not the word that would immediately spring to mind when describing a play that deals with fractal geometry, iterated algorithms,… — Lyn Gardner Copy Share Image
What geographic profiling does is it takes a look at the locations of a connected series of incidents - say murders in… — Kim Rossmo Copy Share Image
These algorithms, which I'll call public relevance algorithms, are-by the very same mathematical procedures-producing and certifying knowledge. The algorithmic assessment of information,… — Tarleton Gillespie Copy Share Image
I would argue that one of the major problems with our blind trust in algorithms is that we can propagate discriminatory patterns… — Cathy O'Neil Copy Share Image
Beauty is more important in computing than anywhere else in technology because software is so complicated. Beauty is the ultimate defense against… — David Gelernter Copy Share Image
The development of an organism ... may be considered as the execution of a 'developmental program' present in the fertilized egg. ...… — Aristid Lindenmayer Copy Share Image
“When the algorithms reward outrage, compassion becomes a form of resistance.” — Lawrence Nault Copy Share Image
And, in the future, while the dumb show of bohemianism plays itself out in the cookie cutter shape of the politically correct… — Adam Parfrey Copy Share Image
“An algorithm is a methodical set of steps that can be used to make calculations, resolve problems and reach decisions. An algorithm… — Yuval Noah Harari Copy Share Image
We are nothing but the product of billions of years of molecules coming together and ratcheting up through natural selection, we are… — David Eagleman Copy Share Image
I really wanted to talk to her. I just couldn't find an algorithm that fit. — Peter Watts Copy Share Image
Every computer divides itself into its hardware and its software, the machine host to its algorithm, the human being to his mind.… — David Berlinski Copy Share Image
