CSinPA presents: Coded Bias

Available March 17 - 31

A virtual cinema experience

Access to the Sundance documentary, Coded Bias, is provided at no-cost through sponsorship by PaTTAN.


Coded Bias explores the fallout of MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini's startling discovery that facial recognition does not see dark-skinned faces accurately, and her journey to push for the first-ever legislation in the U.S. to govern against bias in the algorithms that impact us all.

Available on-demand March 17 - March 31
