We study how ordinary people cope with, understand, and challenge automated systems.
Credit scoring, performance ratings, and pretrial risk assessments: automated systems play an increasingly important role in ordering our lives. Problems arise when people are misrepresented – or stigmatized – by these opaque and hard-to-challenge judgments.
The Digital Due Process Clinic conducts research, education, and engagement at the margins of an automated system. Based at Cornell University, we bring together multidisciplinary teams of students under the supervision of experienced faculty.
