This Stanford University seminar features Dr. Karrie Karahalios from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign discussing AI audits and autonomy in sociotechnical systems. Explore how invisible governance structures shape technology platforms, influencing information dissemination and user autonomy. Learn methods to uncover these hidden mechanisms, understand the illusion of control, and discover approaches to amplify silenced voices in reshaping technological governance. Dr. Karahalios, a University Scholar and Computer Science Professor who co-directs the Center for Just Infrastructures, introduces the concept of Algorithm Audits and shares insights from her work challenging the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) through the ACLU to protect research on algorithmic discrimination. This hour-long talk is part of Stanford's Human-Computer Interaction Seminar series, offering valuable perspectives on the intersection of AI governance, community-centered computing, and social justice.
