Numbers Can Lie

Numbers Can Lie

The famous saying, “numbers don’t lie,” might work when reporting the score of a football game, but even then, the numbers don’t tell the whole story. In the three sessions of this program, learn the basics behind data science, and discover how easily human bias can be encoded into computer models.
