Intro

Today we’re joined by Sharad Goel, Assistant Professor at Stanford. Sharad, who also has appointments in the computer science, sociology, and law departments, has spent recent years focused on applying ML to understanding and improving public policy. In our conversation, we discuss Sharad’s extensive work on discriminatory policing, and The Stanford Open Policing Project. We also dig into Sharad’s paper “The Measure and Mismeasure of Fairness: A Critical Review of Fair Machine Learning.”
