This event is part of the Science Program Things to Come of Imagine Film Festival 2021. In this program, future visions and science fiction are compared to scientific and societal realities. This year, the theme of Things to Come is Artificial Intelligence. During this event we follow up on the questions raised by the documentary Coded Bias. This film confronts us with the dark sides of AI and features – amongst others – scientist Joy Buolamwini. Buolamwini researches racial bias in facial recognition algorithms and started the Algorithmic Justice League in the US. With Marleen Stikker and Stefania Milan Things To Come tries to grasp the true ‘intelligence’ of AI and its impact on our democratic societies.
