This course explores the ethical implications of data analytics. It connects old ideas 鈥� privacy, surveillance, power, justice, accountability, corporate responsibility, stakeholder theory 鈥� with new technologies and cases, such as the use of machine learning to predict crime. The course will prepare you to evaluate strategic arguments about the ethics of data analytics and to relate data analytics to ethical concepts so that you approach newer, ambiguous capabilities of technology and artificial intelligence with a critical eye.
