Comic Book Bridges Gap Around Education in AI, Ethics

MetroLab Network has partnered with Government Technology to bring its readers a segment called the MetroLab Innovation of the Month Series, which highlights impactful tech, data and innovation projects underway between cities and universities. If you'd like to learn more or contact the project leads, please contact MetroLab at info@metrolabnetwork.org for more information. In this month's installment of the Innovation of the Month series, we explore the work of Julia Stoyanovich, an assistant professor of Computer Science, Engineering, and Data Science at New York University, and Falaah Arif Khan from Data, Responsibly, who are creating comics designed to increase awareness of responsible data science. MetroLab's Ben Levine spoke with the two about the background and development of their project. Ben Levine: Can you tell us about the origin of the Data, Responsibly project and who has been involved in it?
