    Analytics Without Borders

    #6 Are you Overpriced? Unveiling the Hidden Layers of AI and Algorithmic Fairness

    Date: Tuesday, February 11, 2025
    Time: 3:30- 4:30 PM ET

    Abstract

    As inflation rises and premiums for car and home insurance climb higher, many of us are left wondering-why the sudden increase? From wildfires in Los Angeles to personalized pricing on platforms like Amazon, where some pay more for the same product than they'd pay at a local store, algorithms increasingly shape these costs. But are these decisions fair? Join us as we uncover the hidden biases behind algorithmic risk management and explore their impact on pricing, credit, and fairness.
