"If Then - But Why?" — Let's try a new way to critically engage with algorithms!

Luca Neuperti, Paula Kilp, Calle Reuter

Algorithms aren't just neutral code. But how to actually critically examine one? Let's try a new approach, from our multidisciplinary seminar "If Then - But Why?". We'll apply these methods to the matching algorithm of dating app Hinge, engaging with it technically (If Then) and socially (But Why?).
