Quotes

Andrea Brown

"If we get more of this with data transparency, if we're able to include more inputs from marginalized communities into open source data sets, into open source algorithms, then these smaller platforms that maybe can't pay for a custom algorithm can use an algorithm without having to sacrifice inclusion."

 

Charna Parkey

“I think if we lift every single platform up, then we'll advance all of the state of the art and I'm excited for that to happen."
