The Algorithmic Justice League (AJL) is an organization raising awareness about the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) systems to perpetuate harmful biases and discrimination. Founded by AI researcher Dr. Joy Buolamwini, AJL combines art and research to illuminate AI’s social implications.
Their mission is to equip advocates with resources, amplify impacted communities’ voices, and push researchers/policymakers to prevent AI harms. AJL believes storytelling can drive social change.
Core principles include consent for AI interactions, transparency into AI development, oversight/accountability mechanisms, and providing actionable critiques rather than just criticism.
AJL aims to shift industry practices around inclusive/ethical AI design and deployment. Their team of researchers, artists, and advocates uncovers biases across domains like healthcare, employment, and criminal justice.
By promoting equitable and responsible AI systems that serve all members of society, AJL is leading a cultural movement toward algorithmic justice.
The Algorithmic Justice League’s education library (https://www.ajl.org/library/education) provides a wealth of resources, including books, poems, and workshops, aimed at raising awareness about algorithmic bias, promoting equitable and accountable AI, and empowering educators to teach these critical issues!
