Data & Society Research InstituteData & Society is an independent nonprofit research organization.

We study the social implications of data, automation, and AI, producing original research to ground informed public debate about emerging technology. This includes research on machine learning, AI systems, algorithmic impact, the future of work, and building trustworthy online infrastructures. Our research offers evidence to counter the notion that technology is the best or only solution to the host of societal challenges we face, and our communications, policy, and engagement work applies and amplifies those findings. In all our work, we collaborate with a growing, international network to explore the far-reaching ways that data-centric and automated technologies are shaping lives and opportunities. Together, we are demonstrating not only why our societies must prioritize more equitable and just systems, but how it can be done.https://datasociety.net/jobs-fellowships/
