Shalini Kantayya's 'Coded Bias' Exposes Algorithmic Racism

Shalini Kantayya's documentary 'Coded Bias', winner of the 2020 Sundance Film Festival, is now streaming on Netflix. The film traces how Joy Buolamwini's 2015 art project Aspire Mirror failed to recognize her Black face, exposing racial bias in AI. Featuring an almost exclusively female cast, the documentary examines data surveillance's disproportionate impact on minorities. Presented at Milano Digital Week in March, it features over ten testimonies on algorithmic prejudice and the power dynamics of artificial intelligence.
