Video description
Ethical lapses aren’t just embarrassing and expensive—they can put your organization at serious risk in a number of ways and damage its reputation and bottom line. If you collect any kind of data, you’re more vulnerable to ethical errors than you may realize. From acquisition and model-building to algorithms, it’s critical to view all aspects of data science through an ethical lens and implement best practices to ensure accuracy. We need only look to some very public failures as proof. Learn about three cases when data ethics mistakes cost companies both money and trust—and how your business can avoid their mistakes.
