Every few years, drug development goes through a moment where a new technology promises to change everything. Artificial ...

Companies can benefit significantly from algorithms based on advanced analytics and machine learning, but it’s often all too easy to overlook the risks that may come with them. The rise of advanced ...

The most widely used technique for finding the largest or smallest values of a math function turns out to be a fundamentally difficult computational problem. Many aspects of modern applied research ...

For better accountability, we should shift the focus from the design of these systems to their impact. Describing a decision-making system as an “algorithm” is often a way to deflect accountability ...

Part of “Complexity Theory,” a column on the tangled questions of our technological age. “Addressing algorithmic bias is like hygiene,” she told me. “You don’t brush once, you don’t floss once, you do ...
