So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

That’s why good programmers and algorithm writers will create tests as they work. Google, for example, tests their algorithms a hundred million times before they ever hit the market.

A machine learning expert predicts a new balance between human and machine intelligence is on the horizon. For that to be good news, researchers need to figure out how to design algorithms that ...

Researchers have devised a new framework for designing machine learning algorithms that helps prevent intelligent machines from being biased.

The Research institute AI Now published new recommendations for the responsible implementation of algorithms in the public sphere on Wednesday. Their advice is directed at a task force formed by ...

Adam Aleksic talks about his new book 'Algospeak,' which details how algorithms are changing our vocabulary; plus, we check in with Hennessy + Ingalls bookstore.

OPINION Who am I to decide when algorithms should make important decisions? The people who bear the risks of algorithmic systems should get to determine whether — and how — they’re used.

Facebook does allow users to have some input on what they see on the platform. By clicking on your menu (upper right on ...
