I recently wrote a final paper for my Digital Culture course, titled "Algorithmic Bias and the Myth of Big Data Neutrality" - a really interesting and really important topic to consider in moving forward in our increasingly technological society.
Computational Creativity
I gave a presentation this week about some applications of artificial neural networks in computational creativity. It consists of an overview and discussion of 3 different papers:
A Computational Model of Poetic Creativity with Neural Network as Measure of Adaptive Fitness
What Happens Next? Event Prediction Using a Compositional Neural Network Model (part of the What-If Machine project)
Here are the slides:
