Normative questions (Day 1, Optimizing for What? Algorithmic Amplification and Society)

How do algorithmic platforms distribute attention and shape social relations? How have they influenced the arts? The public square? What makes algorithmic amplification wrongful? What are the moral and political responsibilities of platforms? Panelists explore these questions in this discussion.

On April 28-29, 2023, the Knight Institute hosted a symposium to explore how online amplification works and to consider interventions that would mitigate some of the harms caused by amplification, or allow us to take fuller advantage of the benefits. The symposium, “Optimizing for What? Algorithmic Amplification and Society,” is a collaboration between the Knight Institute and the Institute’s Visiting Senior Research Scientist Arvind Narayanan.

Panelists:
Annie Dorsen, Independent Artist
Benjamin Laufer, Cornell Tech
Seth Lazar, Australian National University

Moderator:
Katy Glenn Bass, Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University
