[nexa] NY City Council:

NY City Council is holding a hearing on a bill re algorithmic transparency this Monday 10/16 at City Hall: http://legistar.council.nyc.gov/MeetingDetail.aspx?ID=564867&GUID=9567478C-C... Introduction This bill would require agencies that use algorithms or other automated processing methods that target services, impose penalties, or police persons to publish the source code used for such processing. It would also require agencies to accept user-submitted data sets that can be processed by the agencies’ algorithms and provide the outputs to the user.
