An empirical approach to algorithmic transparency from Latin America

The transparency of automated decision making systems (ADMs) is a basic principle of trust in automation technologies. It is one of the distinctive principles of data ethics, which allows citizens to know how data is used and when this produces significant effects on people. Transparency is also a legal obligation of public administrations in Latin America regarding the disclosure of information and acts. It is beginning to expand to new focuses related with the existence, purpose or consequences of the use of ADM by the public agencies. In this panel the participants will share experiences on empiric approaches on algorithmic transparency, showing learnings and findings of ADMs in different countries, seeking to install this issue under the scope of transparency and public information access. The panel will show the experiences of 3 countries where there is empirical work on algorithmic transparency: Chile, Argentina and Colombia.
