People have asked me what happens when thousands of kids are using the app and the entire college landscape is changed. I think that will be great. We should put the decision in the hands of students and families. But that’s also a huge mind-shift. That takes time to do. It can’t be mass produced.

We correct or confirm that these algorithms are correct when we do the behavior that it predicted. In data science, put simply, the percentage of correct predictions is called entropy. So a programmer should set entropy at a high enough rate to make the thing true, or valid.

There are so many dilemmas with this. So many…I mean, a tremendous amount. But I am only going to focus on two. I am most interested in how racism shows up in these and the types of information bias that occurs and why.
