Computers v. Crime with NOVA

In police departments and courts across the country, artificial intelligence is being used to help decide who is policed, who gets bail, how offenders should be sentenced, and who gets parole. But is it actually making our law enforcement and court systems fairer and more just?  

NOVA explores these questions with Computers v. Crime, an investigation into the hidden biases, privacy risks, and design flaws of this controversial technology.  

Join us for a screening of a selection of clips from the film paired with a panel discussion featuring leading experts in technology, science, and social justice. 

NOVA's Computers v. Crime premieres WED OCT 12 at 9/8c on PBS. Check local listings for details. You can also watch it online or on the PBS Video App ahead of the premiere
